    I remember Jerry from Easton summer baseball games. What a sweet person. My Mom thought the world of her mom, Mrs. Easter and her sister, Maxine. My brother John had sleepovers with Shorty at the Jackson home. Good memories. Sorry for your loss.

    I’m so thankful for the fun, laughs, sharing lots of candy, and friendship with Jerry over the past several years. It was always a joy to visit her and to care for her . We could always pick up right where we left off. I praise the Lord for her faithfulness to Him and that she is now with Him and so many loved ones. I’ll always remember her fondly and will keep praying for those who miss her. Welcome Home, Jerry!
