At one time Jerry and I grew very close, going hunting and talking. I would pick him up and drive and we would talk about the old days, family, and what the future would bring us. I never once heard him say anything bad about anyone, although he was having issues. As many young people it seemed he was fighting demons of his own and confided in me a lot. Then suddenly he stopped talking and he seemed to fall back into despair. We talked recently sometimes about our cancer battles and he once said to me that he wished he could handle it like I was. It touched my heart and pulled at me. I have dedicated my life fighting cancer as best I can for Jerry and all the loved ones we have lost. God bless his soul.
