Jerry was a very special little lady, she will be missed in our Oxbow familY! My deepest sympathy & prayers to her loving family at this sad time!
So sorry to hear about Jerry! She was such a nice, nice lady! Thinking of her family at this time.
She was a great lady that I have had the pleasure of knowing for at least 60 years. Her parents lived across the street from my parents. I grew up with John and Larry. She will be missed by all the knew her.
