Sorry to hear about this. My heart and prayers go out to the family. Some years ago while trying to contact family members as the coordinator of the Verwolf Reunion I had the pleasure of talking to Jerry on the phone. He express well his love of his family so I know there are many who will be missing him dearly. Hold on to the great memories and strength you have received with and from him. Love to all.

I have tried to leave a note here a couple of times. I don’t see it so I will leave another.
When I saw this I thought of a phone conversation I had with Gerald a few years ago when I was updating the Verwolf Reunion mailing list. It was just wonderful to visit with him and hear of his great love of family. So I know that there are many who will miss him greatly.
He had such a great sense of humor and zest for life. Hang onto those awesome memories and be there for each other as Gerry would want you to be.
I send my best wishes to all of you.
