Thank You

The family of Jerry wishes to thank you for all the prayers, support, gifts of kindness, memorials, cards, visits, shared memories and all the love that was shown to us after the tragic accident and the loss of our husband / father/ son / brother and grandpa. Words cannot express how much it means to my family and me to have such

support. The kindness you have shown will never be forgotten.

Thank you to the EMTS and Michael Cleppe, who stopped to help along HWY 151 at the scene. We know you did everything you could to help me save his life, but God called him home to heaven where we will someday join him.

Thank you to Pastor David Rempfer for being there at the hospital and for the beautiful funeral service. Thanks also to the Jolly

Neighbor Club and Grace Lutheran Ladies Aid members who served the lunch and to the Blairstown Legion for the use of their facility.

A special thank you to family members who were there for us at this very difficult time, both at the hospital and afterward. Your love and support means a lot to us. Also thanks to Scott and Shawna Budak, who have been a special blessing through it all.

Thank you also to the person who gave a gift to my grandson, Eli, to give to me. Your card got separated from the gift so I don't know who to thank.

Jerry was always helping throughout his life and continues to help others through his gift to the Iowa Donor Network and through the memorials you sent.
