While I’ll be traveling for work and unable to attend Jerry’s Celebration of life. I want to say, I met him 8 years ago and we immediately became friends through my work and his dealership. I was blessed to be able to help them out in many marketing opportunities, but the best part was getting to know the man. One of the best humans God created and this is a huge loss for us, but a gain for heaven. They don’t make them like Jerry Peterman anymore and in my opinion they should start again. Rest in Heaven, Jerry. Love you ya man. See you on the other side.

Jerry's love for the Lord will live on in his testimony he shared for years. He was such an honest, caring, giving man that was humble and loved to help others. He was my dad's(Sam Galindo) best friend and it makes me happy that the "three Amigo's (Tom Brogran)", are together again,with Jesus ❤️
I purchased a couple of cars from Jerry in the past. Probably the most honest person I have ever dealt with. Always a gentleman and very fair. he will be missed.
Since the day Jerry and I met officially in 2001 at the West Michigan Auto Auction we were friends. He aske me to buy vehicles for his Classy Chassy store and we developed a great friendship and business relationship that continued until 2022 when I retired but we kept in touch often. We had so much fun perusing the vehicles at the auctions, bidding and buying in Michigan, Florida and elsewhere. He is a generous soul and will be celebrating in Heaven! Love you Jerry and all the wonderful memories we had together here in Michigan and Fort Myers Beach will comfort me until we meet again. Tim
Jerry was a man whose middle mane was kindness, generosity, and his faith touched every life he encountered. He lived each day with a quiet strength and a servant’s heart, always ready to lend a hand, share a smile, or offer a word of encouragement. Whether helping a neighbor in need, volunteering at church, listening with genuine care, he reflected the love of Christ in everything he did. One of his girls wrote him 70 wonderful memories about she and Jerry for his birthday a few years back. They were a testament of how much he loved his kids
Jerry will be sorely missed and the reunion with him in the Kingdom will be an absolute celebration.
Rest in peace my friend until we see each other again...
You were a kind and loving soul.
You're smile was the best!
You will be missed but
I know you are in the loving arms of Our Lord.
Your friend, Lori
