On May 14, this world lost a wonderful man. Jerry Dishon was only 60 years of age, but he had been struggling with illness for many years. He made an impact on many during his life. Jerry was a loving father, husband, grandfather, son, brother, uncle, and friend.  He was also active in the community as a coach and mentor to youth.

One of Jerry's utmost goals in life was to provide for his family, and he worked very hard until his physical condition no longer allowed him to do so. Due to his medical conditions, he was unable to obtain life insurance. His wife and daughters are managing medical and funeral expenses to the best of their abilities, but any contributions that could be provided by friends and family would be greatly appreciated.
