Sorry to hear of Jerry’s passing. I stayed at his house many summers and also enjoyed the garage parties with Uncle Andrew and Aunt Dot. He was in a band and I would ride along with him. Many good memories and we had our first children 1 month apart. Glad I got to see him at the cousins reunion. My condolences to his wife and children.

Sorry to hear about Jerry's passing. Jerry was a character, always cracking jokes. He and my dad were good friends and co-workers at NNSY for many years. I also worked with him at NNSY for several years before he retired. We went on more than one late night/early morning road trip to Pennsylvania and North Carolina for car shows and swap meets to buy parts for cars that we were working on. He will be missed.

I worked with Jerry as an intern and Naval Architect in C254. I remember him as being a unique individual who always had a joke to tell! He had a wealth of knowledge and was always willing to help. We had an irreplaceable gap when he retired from NNSY. My dearest condolences to the family.

Was shocked to hear of Jerry's passing. The sad news got me remembering the old days on Norvella Ave. across the street from Jerry growing up. I spent a lot of time at Jerry's garage with him and A.J. playing ping pong (gnip gnop) and hanging out. They always invited me to go bowling when they went to Bowl-a-rama. We send our condolences to his family I know he will be missed. Bob Kinney
