My thoughts and prayers are with Jerry's family. I first met Jerry when I started with Southern Bell way back in January of 1973 and he quickly took me under his wing. Not only did he teach me Outside Plant Engineering, he taught me how to be a member of the "Telephone Family." I'll always remember his smile and how he always made you feel special.

Our condolences to Jerry's family and friends. We really enjoyed the times we spent together at the Oakie Ridge School Reunions. He was a great MC. May God be with you all in the coming days, weeks, months..
