November 20th, 2010

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.

  1. He was full of fun and had a twinkle in his eyes even when he would say to me "Hey, uglier than I"! I had always wished I could find a good comeback to throw back at him, but I never did come up with one! He could be gruff and full of himself, but he loved his family. Sheila

  2. Some of the family facebook comments from yesterday...
    - Mary Wagner - Rest in Peace Uncle Jerry. I'll miss you, you old fart.
    - Timothy A. Gordon - So sorry for the loss of Jerry. May he be now forever in peace, and may the healing for the family begin. We were very glad he was at our wedding!
    - John Wagner He was one of those guys you thought would last for ever. Kind of tough and wiry, but with a good heart.
    - Peggy Gordon Your comment is perfect Mary! He will be missed.
