Aunt Lucerne and family, I send my deepest sympathy to you all on the passing of Uncle Jerry. What wonderful memories you must have of your dear husband, father, father-in-law and grandfather. Some of my fondest memories of Uncle Jerry were of his sweet gentle nature and wonderful polka tunes he played on his accordian. Rest in peace Uncle Jerry. Peace to all your family.--Leona {Thomas} Feiner
