Lori, Alan, Jodi and Family...
I am saddened by Jerry's passing. Thirty-two years ago, he was my baseball coach and my memories are fresh and fond. I had quite a few coaches in my lifetime, but Jerry was special. He treated me like a person, not like a kid. He was one of the few adults to ever ask how I was doing personally...how were my parents. When I spoke to him a few years ago about our Little League reunion and he told me he couldn't make it, I had a strange feeling I wouldn't be seeing him again. He was a good man and good men are rare.
