I have built several of Jerry's engines and have enjoyed an e-mail exchange with him. Although it's the only way I have associated with him I will miss him for sure.

I have admired Jerry's work very much over the years as I found out about him while in college studying engineering. I ordered plans for one of his Stirling engines. His engines and plans were very well thought out. He will be missed in our small community of gear heads.

I knew of Jerry thru this Stirling hobby by finding his web site in 2006. Niether attending a craft show or ordering from him, He and others like him have given me a better understanding in modeling Stirling. I reconise his skills and dedication to our relatively obscure hobby surrounding these table top wonders! "Longboy" Tucson, AZ.
