“Jerry and I were friends living across the street from each other on S. 44th Place. We played football on our street and once were challenged by a couple of college aged guys who lived next to me on the north side of my family's house. We tried our best but those young adults played rough. Jerry and I had fun. My family lived at 5402 S. 44th Place and Jerry lived at 5415 S. 44th Place in Phoenix. My family moved in 1974 and Jerry and I lost touch.”

“Aww man. Belated condolences to friends and family. We worked together in late 80s early 90s at Pizza Hut in Scottsdale. It wasn’t long before I discovered this big hulking man was a funny big hearted dude who was a talented gospel singer. We had some good times from work, to watching him sing with the choir to traveling up South mountain on the hottest day recorded in Phoenix. We lost touch when I moved back to Michigan . Ehhh! I’ll catch you singing in Gods choir one day my friend.”

“One year ago we went to the State Fair. The Fair is here again. I truly miss you. We would be going to the fair again. This year I will thank God for having you in my life. You were the most sincere, loving and positive person I've ever known. That is so very hard to find. You were and are the love of my life. I love you deeply.”
