    I’ve known Jerry since high school and think I even have a picture of us with some other guys from Fremont together in Viet Nam that was taken in 1969. He will be greatly missed by his family and friends. R.I.P. Jerry.

    Cherie, my heart is there with you as you go through the loss of your twin brother. Just remember that he is in a better place, free from pain, and that he will always be with you!! Twins share a very special bond and you will find that although you can not see him, he is with you always!! Prayers and love to you and always know he is just a whisper away! Love you and want you to know I will be thinking of you and sharing in your loss! Brenda and Brent (always two hearts together).
