Wow! So surprised to hear this,. I've been wondering why Jerry hadn't been on Facebook in awhile. He would come in every once in awhile.
At one point in our schooling together, Jerry was our neighbor two doors down. My dad even worked with his dad at Mare Island. We were classmates from 4th to 6th Grade at Pueblo Vista Elementary Schoool.
My condolences and prayers to his family.
