There are so many thoughts going through my head, so many feelings, and so many emotions. I really wish I could talk to you one more time, just to let you know I love you. I hope you really know I do. I am so lost with what to do next. I know you are in heaven and I hang on to the fact that I will get to see you again. I am clinging to the word of God and leaning hard on those around me for prayers. But I am not ok. I wish you were still here. I love you dad.
thanks allen you meant alot to him this is nicole.
Jerry
I am at peace knowing you are with Momma Diddy and Terry and you are no longer suffering or in pain.
I am not at peace when I now realize that just two weeks ago when you called and talked we would always end our conversation with “Bye I Love you” that It was the last time I would hear you say that.
You left us so suddenly with no closure but I respect your final decision.
Bye I Love You Jerry!
Jerry was just a good man. He loved his Georgia Bulldogs and watching golf tournaments. I understand he used to play golf too. I know he enjoyed his friends at Will Henry’s. He was a great friend to my brother-in-law Buck Brownlee and his family.
He helped me out multiple times when my old car wouldn’t start or I needed a ride.
I enjoyed sitting on the front porch for a smoke and watching the birds and chipmunks. You will be missed Jerry.
Rest in Peace Jerry.
