I could write for pages to tell you what you meant to me my whole life, but it wouldn’t be enough. It would take me ten life times to repay you for the love and lessons you shared with me. Some men spend their lives looking for someone to look up to and emulate. I never had to look too far – about 180 miles northeast- every summer!!! Thank you, dear Uncle. Rest in peace. We will always love and miss you. Rob and Joanna
My dearest Godfather…words can’t begin to express how much I am going to miss you. Even though you are gone doesn’t mean you will ever be far from my heart. I will always remember the good times that were spent together. Be at peace Uncle Jerry. I will miss you and love you forever. Kerry Anne

A great neighbor and a wonderful friend . He was always there to help ,or give his “expert advise” along with a beer .He will be sadly missed .
I’m very sad to hear of the loss of your loving husband and father. I remember the fun we all had at Tom and Carm’s home in Lancaster. Especially all the guy trying to out do each other with their hot sauce shots. He was always ready for a good laugh. He surely will be missed. God bless you all at this time and always.
