Jerry was a kind, considerate brother-in-law. He kept “in touch” with Merv and it was appreciated. Now they’re both at peace…together!

Jerry, I love you and will miss you so much. You were like a second father to me. I learned many things from you and I know that you are in a better place now. Now you have Gizmo back. I love you very much and always will.
