Jerry's Determination

In the early years of my friendship with Jerry, he would always tell me that he was going to build his home close to his church and his work. and later that he was going to obtain his VA law degree. I thought that this was "very difficult" since I could barely maintain my home life and work. Incredibly !!! Jerry with Naomi's help had the drive and determination to accomplish all of this, including building a home, maintaing his marrige, raising children and building a law practice. When I speak to my children and friends, I would often speak of Jerry's accomplishments as a model for all, and an example of how to live a good life.

I always remember helping Jerry bring a huge Chistmas tree into his house.  I never thought it would fit but he did it !!!!!!!!!! His drive and Catholic spirit were a model for me. Even though we didn't speak much recently, he was always on my mind. I will miss him.
