To know Jerry was to know true joy.  He was always laughing, making jokes and talking all the good smack.  He loved his family so much; he believed in family more than anyone we know.  He would give the shirt off his back to the next person if he could.  He loved his free-style music, cooking on his grill and of course his Chicago Cubs.  There was never a time that you could ask him for a favor and he wouldn’t be able to help.  He stepped up as a father and grandfather; he sacrificed so much to care for others.  If you had the pleasure of knowing him, then you had the privilege to love him.  He was a loyal, kind and loving friend.  His presence will never be replaced, but his memory will live strong in all of us.  Until we meet again…..
