Laying Jerry to Rest Too Early In This Life

Donation protected

My brother left this world too soon. Suffering from depression that he was unable to keep under control. He couldn’t take it anymore no matter what anyone said or did, no matter how loved and happy he looked on the outside. Inside the horrible demon won. If you knew Jerry, you know he’d help anyone but tragically  he didn’t apply the same standards to himself. 

He leaves behind a completely grief-stricken family, parents who never imagined they would be seeing their child, and part of their heart pass on, and a sweet little boy who won’t understand why daddy isn’t around anymore. He will continually be surrounded by love and we will all help Holly meet his needs.  

Everyone is asking how they can help. Jerry didn’t have a life Insurance policy so now on top of everything else we are going through, it falls on us. 

We are having him cremated with a visitation service to take place prior. If you are able to donate, anything and everything is appreciated. Anything beyond what is raised will go directly to a savings account for his son Everett, now being raised solely by his loving mother, Holly. 

Prayers for our family are greatly needed. 

Thank you,
Sincerely,
Jerry’s Family
