Sorry for your loss. I saw him at Brads shop next door on Tuesday afternoon. He gave me a crap about my work clothes not being dirty. RIP buddy.

Dear Pam & Family,
Terry and I are so sorry for Jerry’s unexpected passing.
Please know we are here for you in a very real sense. Tomorrow I’ll be dropping off some homemade, vegan, vegetable soup.
You’re changed now… not because he left you, but because he touched you. ❤
We love you, Pam,

Pam and family,
You have our deepest sympathy on the sudden passing of Jerry. He will be missed at Frisch’s by all the guys in the breakfast group. They sure shared some stories over the years.
We won’t be able to attend his service, but know that our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time.
Hugs,
