My thoughts and prayers are with Jerry's family. He and I often spoke during the past 20 years. I never failed to enjoy Jerry's company and his unique sense of humor. He was a good man that truly loved his family and spoke of them often. In a lifetime you hope to meet a handful of people with Jerry's character and faith of conviction. He will be missed.
I am very saddened at the news of Jerry's passing. He was an honest, forthright man that called things as he saw them, and a devoted fan of those Minnesota Gophers! My thoughts, prayers and best wishes to his family.
