    To Carol and Jerry’s family and our cousins: We are so sorry to learn of Jerry’s passing. None of us are that young anymore, but 70 is way too early to lose such a great guy. Our thoughts and prayers are with you in the days ahead, and may time bring peace and healing and happy memories to replace the pain of loss. Mike & Mary (Goodapple) Schuttler
