I can’t believe I missed this. I dated Jerry and later in life we both cheered for our boys in wrestling. What a wonderful smile he had. Last time I saw him was at the Mesa airport I was arriving he was leaving! Again So Very Sorry

So sorry for your loss. My husband and I enjoyed playing tennis with Jerry. He was always a gentleman on the court. He was known for his wicked slice serve, his laugh and his smile.

I clearly remember the day I met Jerry, over 50 years ago, treasure our contact since and am proud to have him as a great friend. We admire and are inspired by the love, loyalty and dedication Jerry has shown to family and friends alike. Jerry has earned and richly deserves the right to RIP eternally. Till we meet again!

To the O’Brien family. Our deepest sympathies in the loss of your father & grandpa. We were Roadhaven friends with Jerry. We have stayed in contact with Jerry since he left Az. We all missed him after he left to stay in Iowa. He always talked about his family fondly. You made a special & happy home for him Shellie. I’m sorry we can’t be there in person. We truly wanted to meet hIs special family. You all remain in our thoughts & prayers ??????
