Dear Sally & Families,
We were so surprised to get the call of Uncle Jerry's passing. Ron has many memories of times with his Uncle at the farm, and we both will remember the great time we had in Wilcox at Uncle Harolds that winter. Our memories are all we have for the moment but some day we will all be together again.
Many Blessings to all!##imported-begin##Ron & Julie Handlogten##imported-end##
Dear Sally & Jay...Jenny called me with the news while we were out-of-town. I truly wish I had been able to attend Jerry's funeral. I am sorry that I didn't see more of you's over the years since the Center closed. Your family have been favorites of mine, from the day Sally hired me. I often think of the Harjer's...Jungle Stud, his Amazon Temptress, and Little Stud. You have my very deepest sympathies. Jerry was a terrific man and I know he will be missed. My sincere condolences....Carm##imported-begin##Carmen Flickinger##imported-end##
Sally and Jason, so sorry to hear of Jerry's death. He was such a pleasure to know and brightened the days I saw you all. You're in my thoughts...Jamie##imported-begin##Jamie Decker (Kirby)##imported-end##
Sally - I will always treasure all the wonderful doughnuts, cookies, and coffee hours the three of us had together. We had so much fun joking around together. I have always been so fond of Jerry and what a wonderful man he was. I was so proud of the way he loved and respected and you and took great pride in the fact that he loved to tease me about the fact that I introduced the two of you. I know he is looking down at us two and saying "Hey, you two, you can still have those coffee times together, I will be thinking of you and I will be there with you in spirit". I will really miss him a lot. Your friend, Merry.##imported-begin##Merry Smith##imported-end##
Dear Sally and Family, I was deeply saddened to read of Jerry's passing last night. Unfortunately, I got the news too late to make last night's visitation. Jerry was always such a bright spot in my life whenever you and he would come in the store. I will very much miss his caustic little remarks and put downs, all done with love and affection, of course. Sally, I am so sorry for your loss. I will keep you all in my prayers. Jerry lived a good, long life, and he will be sadly missed by all who knew him. In God's love and peace, Evie##imported-begin##Evie Sias##imported-end##

My Mom was Frances Duff and Jerry worked together at Hile School and he also knew my Father William Duff my parents spoke very highly of Jerry I remember seeing him when I would go to school and would go by my Mom when she was working. They are probably visiting together in heaven talking of old times at the school.
Prayers be with the family.##imported-begin##Jessie(Duff) Kleyn##imported-end##
