Jerry has been such a great part of my life since I was a child. I had a real crush on him in HS and saved a letter he wrote me in typing class for ages. We never dated because he became like a brother. He would hunt with my daddy in over in Lost Corner and would tell me tales on my daddy. Especially the one about him coming back to the cabin and daddy had found a huge bunch of marijuana the hippies had gathers, daddy took and was getting rid of it by burning it in the stove in the cabin. Jerry said daddy didn’t know breathing that would make HIM high….and he was. He always got a great laugh out of that.
Jerry was one of my husband’s very best friends since the 5th grade. It really hit Glenn hard. He loved Jerry, I loved Jerry. We know he’s in a better place. You kids & Ruth all please know you can call us at anytime for anything you need. We love you all and consider you part of our family. We love you all.
So sorry for your loss. Sincerest condolences to all the family.
TO ALL OF JERRY HARTWICK FAMILY MEMBERS WE ARE SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR LOSS.
OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS GO OUT TO EACH AND EVERYONE.
JERRY WAS A WONDERFUL FRIEND AND HE WILL BE FOREVER MISSED
REST IN HEAVENLY PEACE

Sorry for your loss to the family. It has been a few years but always thought a lot of Jerry.
To all Jerry’s family, I haven’t known Jerry all that long but believe me when I say he’s was devoted to spreading Gods word. I’m praying for peace during this time.
