  1. I was shocked to see that Jerry passed away. My sympathy to Sandy & family. May the angels lead Jerry to paradise.

  2. This breaks my heart. One of the best guys I’ve ever known, and got to call him friend for close to 50 years. This wasn’t supposed to happen, he was supposed to sing at my funeral. 😢 Sandy I’m so very sorry.

  4. Our hearts are broken. Jerry was such a great man, gone far too soon. He was a wonderful friend, neighbor, dedicated member of our community, and his beautiful voice as a soloist touched so many lives. He was always there when someone needed him, always willing to lend a hand. You will be greatly missed Jerry.

    Keeping Sandy and the entire family in our thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time. 🙏🏻💗🙏🏻
