Help Honor Jerry Scofield Jr.'s Memory

Good Evening Friends and Family.

I don’t even know where to begin with something like this. Some of you may have heard by now, My Dad’s name has been called upon to join his Mom, Dad, and Brother in heaven. Most of y’all know him as “Jerry” or “Mr. Jerry” but I had the honor to know him as DAD. To know Dad is to love him. This is truly the most devastating thing that I have ever experienced and it’s truly unimaginable the pain i’m experiencing right now. Our bond was like no other. Dad was my rock. He held me solid through all trials and tribulations, and showered me with compassion and love through all my shortcomings. He made sure I knew i was loved. I know what love and compassion for others looks like because of how he cared for me and others in everything he did. I wouldn’t be here where I am or even half the man I am, without having your support, guidance, and love. I am the man I am today because I strived to make you proud everyday. I hope i can grow up to be half the father you was to me. You was a true “Jackpot Dad”. I was truly blessed to have you be the man in my life. I can’t comprehend that you’re gone. This doesn’t feel real, Everything has been a blur ever since I heard about this. It’s traumatizing and you’re the one person I want to lean on to go through this right now. I don’t know how I can handle this with out you. You can never prepare for death but to loose you so unexpectedly is devastating.

I am currently in the process of preparing arrangements and figuring out how to move forward. I cannot even begin to tell you all how overwhelming this is. All while trying to grieve and process what is going on. So bear with me as I try to figure out arrangements. I am not one to ever ask for anything but at this time I don’t know how I can make it through this with out y’all’s help. Please help in anyway you can as I cannot do this by myself. I will be setting up something to help with donations to pay for the arrangements. But most importantly I ask that you pray and continue to pray over me and my family at this time. I know that only through our Saviors Love, Strength, and Compassion will I be able to navigate this devastating loss of my dad.
