God and the soldier, we adore; In time of danger, not before. The danger over and all things righted; God is forgotten, the soldier slighted. From a nephew, John A Carey, SFC US Army(Ret), [email protected]

I knew Jerry in high school. We only had study hall together since he was a senior and I was a junior. We got to be good friends and then school was over and we lost touch. It wasn't till some time later that I learned that he was gone. We had lots of good laughs. I miss him still. Bill Edwards, 3100 Olivia Rd, Olivia, NC 28368.
