Jerry changed my career and life. He was always positive and upbeat and on a mission to coach and lead anyone who would allow him. He helped me to believe in my self and what I had to offer a company. When he found out I never had a father, he mentored me as a father would have throughout our time of knowing one another. He loved and talked of his family and God often which was his two greatest loves. I pray peace and comfort to the family and know you have plenty of happy memories to share. He is receiving his rewards in heaven. God bless

My deepest sympathy to the family. I had the privilege to get know and respect Jerry during the two years we worked together when he first came to Prestolite. He was a man of great faith and values who cared for and encouraged his emploees. Jerry spoke often of his love and pride of his wife Dee and all the children and grandchildren. May your wonderful memories bring you peace and comfort in the coming months. He was a very good man. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. God Bless.
