Not sure where to begin. Jerry was a great guy. In my time knowing him (12 years) he was not only a neighbor but also a friend. We would talk about life, politics and of course the Pittsburgh Pirates/Steelers. I wish all my neighbors were like him. I have many fond memories that I will never forget. RIP my friend Jerry.
