LOVE YOU ALL

Uncle Jerry

Uncle Jerry was my Godfather and I have such fond memories him and Aunt Mary in their house on the edge of the cemetery. The house, basement and workshop... I am heartbroken that we have lost our most elegant, gracious and wonderful Uncle. I have visions of him and Aunt Mary, my father too happy and young.

Thanks Shawn

Love ya

I remember Uncle Jerry always say "Hi Ugly" when he saw me. Of course, I always called him a"Grumpy of man" or "Old Fart". Going back to Iowa won't be the same without seeing him. I will miss him so much. My prayers are with Cindy, Ted, Joe, Joyce, Gloria, Sylvia, and all the rest of the family he leaves behind.

Today my grandpa Jerry lost his battle with prostrate cancer. His five children were all with him over the past week as he slowly went down hill. We all love him. In this day in age our friends and family are scattered around the country so I decided to create this blog so friends and family can post stories and pictures of him. I look forward to hearing from you.
