Jerry was an inspiration and such a fine Christian man I worked with him for many years at the hospital. He would always give the best hugs.
I met our sweet Jerry at our hospital in North Little Rock. He worked and never met a stranger there. He knew everyone by name and everyone knew him & loved 🥰 Jerry. We’ve missed him and his momma. Ride high & spread your wings Jerry.
Miss you & your laugh Jerry!
