Uncle Jerry will be greatly missed. So many memories....
I always loved sitting and watching uncle Jerry, grandpa, Leroy... playing domino's. All of us camping at the lake. Grandma, Grandpa with their camper on the back of the pickup, some of the boys sleeping under the truck 🙂 Playing games in the lake, paired up with holding someone on their shoulders, playing chicken. Majority of us, all lined up in the water and taking turns swimming under each person from end to the beginning. uncle Jerry and aunt Peggy were competitive in every event, their smiles and laughter were contagious to us all. Each summer back when... always anxious for the summer crops to be finished. Our annual campout coming soon... Awesome meals were cooked and we all enjoyed every moment â¤

Uncle Jerry was always ready and willing to work and play with his nieces and nephews - from hauling hay in the summers, riding horses and ponies, to opening his home for us to play cards and make home made pizza. Many childhood memories were made with Uncle Jerry and Aunt Peggy.
