I am so sorry to hear of Jerry's death, I went to school with him until age fifteen. I moved from Diboll, but never forgot my classmates and Jerry was special.  He was a kind, polite and sweet boy.  I know he will be missed.  May God bless your family and be with you all during this difficult time.  Barbara (Rains) Hollingsworth

My association with Jerry over the past few years has been an invaluable gift to me.  He was the most gentle, kind and giving man I think I have ever had the honor to have known.  His spirit will live on as a reminder to all of us that we walk among angels while we are alive here on earth and I truely believe that I met an angel when when I met Jerry. We are all better off because we knew him and he will certainly live on in our hearts. Adios my brother, you are well loved.  Jerry and Josi Miller

So sorry to learn of Jerry Don's death. After looking at your photo album, it's easy to see that he kept that great smile that we all remember so well from high school. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

We are praying for you to get through these tough times. Jerry Don was a favorite of my Dad's.  He always wanted to hear from Jerry Don and this is imbedded in me today.  When the family gathered, you could bet Jerry Don would be there. He was our information piont for family news.  I am believing today that he and Dad have met up!  Love you'll, hang in there and we will continue praying for you all.
