We’re so sorry for your loss. Your Dad was a good Man. I called him Dad, and he would call me his daughter. He would help anyone that was in need. He would sponsor Allen during football, and lacrosse season every year, and Nae during basketball, and track. I could call him he would say its football season I got you. Meet me at 711 I’ll have a check for you. The school would advertise his business Calvert Tree. I would call him at times just to check on him and say hi. The last time I spoke to him on the phone was April 6th 2019, but seen him after In passing, and we spoke. He will FOREVER be MISSED.

Jerry lived life to the fullest. He spent time in Hawaii, and kept the laid back attitude of a Hawaiian. He was quick to make friends, a was full of good cheer, love and warmth. He was forever young.
