John Jerke

My condolences to Leah and the family. I will miss Johnnie; he was a good neighbor to us and my childhood was filled with memories of him. He was a story teller of renown and I was always entertained by him. I especially remember a family trip taken when I was 5 years old to California and the Southwest. I think his ears rang for weeks after that from my "singing" in the car as we drove. John was a unique and wonderful person and I will miss him. May God be with Leah through this loss.
