Grandaddy never ever missed a game, he is my biggest supporter and everything I do will be for him. When he lived with us we went to jimmy's grill so often it became a daily thing. He took me to the bus stop and came and got me in the afternoons from school. The second we saw his purple truck we knew he had to get it, he told me that truck is ours and he got it for us. He was and always will be my best friend. We talked about so much and we were always (secretly) making fun of people lol. I know you'll be with me in my heart for every single game now and every play and hit will be for you! I love you so much and I miss you more than anything, but you're in a better place and I know you're with Granny. Give her a big hug for me💜

Although I didn't know Jerry up close I know he was loved by all of his family especially his sister Adele. May he find peace  and be pain free.

I will miss everything about you most of all just knowing you was there if I  needed you no matter day or night if we needed you, you   was there if there every was a man loved so much it would be you. We didn't get to say good bye or just tell you we loved you but we knew we didn't have to for you already knew as we lay you to rest today I pray for each and everyone that will be there last night was the sweetest time spent with you we know you are with us you would be so proud of all of your kids they have blessed us and today will be even more blessing to all of us what he taught us in his rough  and loving way will last a life time can't thank you enough for loving us my parents are together now and there will be no more worries for us we had you here and God has you now Rest in peace Dad your memory will live forever! " War damn Eagle" NO Roll Tide Roll our famous words in this family !!  He loved it, we love you. My Dad my friend my hero forever loved your Daughter.

I was very lucky to spend the last week with uncle Jerry And I cherish that time with him. His great nieces and nephews continue to talk about the big cabin on the hill and the memories they were able to share. You will be missed always, but I know your with aunt Betty and my dad..and always with us.

Jerry almost always had a smile when you saw him. Nice and thoughtful man. Rest on High Jerry. Prayers for the family.🙏

Uncle Jerry was a wonderful man. On his last week with us he celebrated his great nephew birthday. He was always full of life and always teasing. Uncle Jerry was a outgoing man, kind and caring. I will always remember him in the highest appreciation and gratitude for all he did for me. He will be truly missed but in my heart always. Now my Aunt and my dad have him now and he at peace! 

There are so many memories I have of him but the one I know everyone has experienced is him yelling "war damn eagle" everywhere he went, not caring at all if he embarrassed you!
Not only was he an amazing grandfather but great grandfather as well! No matter who you are, he was and will forever be "Grandaddy" to everyone.  I am so blessed Kaden had so many years with him and that he was able to be here for Jaxons birth.  

He most definitely knew how to make you laugh, whether he was picking on you or telling (dirty) jokes! Grandaddy was the one person that was always there for me.   He may have been rough around the edges to some but he had a heart of gold!
 To all of you ball players, both past to present, I know he has left great memories with all of you!
As my heart is broken to have lost him I am very grateful that I've had almost 30 years with him!  I will forever tell my boys about their grandaddy and what an amazing man he was. 

 Granddaddy had so much love in his heart,  he wasn’t just granddaddy to his own grandchildren but to all of their friends and cousins too.   I feel lucky to have been loved and to love granddaddy.   Give granny hugs from me  💕💋

Brent and I were so lucky to have had you in our lives. We can’t wait until Norah gets older so we can tell her the story of how her Uncle Jerry made her baby shower even though he was JUST released from the hospital. I’m so thankful you were able to meet her once she got to come home from the hospital. We love and miss you. 
Sierra, Brent, and Norah. ❤️

We begin to remember  not just that you died  but that  you lived and that your life gave us memories  to beautiful to for get 
               We will always be thankful
                For a true blessing who was jerry barcia

 Adele Combs (Sister ) and  Charles (Brother) And all of his nephews, nieces and great nieces and nephews we wish him a happy journey. 

 We will  miss Jerry, his jokester antics,  always trying to convince me I was older than him . Will never forget the all night fishing trip  he , Betty , Johnny and myself took on his boat. Betty and I , threw up all night , we were so very sea sick, at sunrise he called someone to come pick us up , and he took Us back to the marina ,and politely put us on the dock , and said “ See you girls later , Johnny and  I are going back to fish in peace and quiet.” I know your fishing in wonderful peace now . Just save some big ones for us.
