Condolences
I’m so sorry to hear about Jerry, he was such a kind soul. I drove a school bus down his rode for 4 years and every Friday after noon he’d be waiting to give all the kids candy! He was great and I love him very much:)

So sorry for your loss of my former classmate, whom I nicknamed Olin while at Dixie. Olin Treadway was a college football player. Jerry was a friend so many years ago, and with our 55th reunion coming up in the fall, I am sorry that we will not get to see him. I live in Toledo, OH, and will not make it down there for the service. Prayers for his family.
