Dear Family of Jerald,
We did not know him personally but we did know his wonderful sister & brother in law Janella & Dean Smith of Houston, Texas. They were so very helpful to me and my family when I had come down to MD Anderson with a diagnosis of a very rare -Stage 4 cancer. Mazie Marchiony is my brothers awesome wife and she gave us Janella's name to help us navigate our way in Houston. Mazie always said Janella was like another sister to her! She talked about her family a lot & we knew they all came from a very loving family! I am sorry that Jerry was called to Heaven so soon but I truly believe that "HEAVEN is for REAL" & we will all see him again someday. Lots of Love to the whole Family
Jerry was a hard working man. He loved his family and adored his grandchildren. He was a role model for many. He was a very kind,, gentle man and he will be missed by many.
I worked with Jerry for many years at Kellogg Co. He was a great guy to work with on projects, but more importantly he was always interested with how everyone he worked with was doing personally, not just the work.
He also had a wonderful sense of humor, he will be missed by all......
Uncle Jerry was a wonderfull and kind man. I remember him as very soft spoken, an odd juxtaposition to his stature. I remember family holiday dinners, walks through the barn and how much he loved his family.
