We are so sorry for your loss. The family and friends of Jerry are in our prayers.

Jerry and I,(Don),are cousins and unfortunately we never kept in touch. I guess we both thought we would have more time. I am truly sorry for your loss, it was way too early. We hope Jerry's memory will bring you peace and comfort.

I never had the fortune of meeting Jerry in person but spoke with him many many times on the phone when he did abstracting work for Summit Docs/Document Retrieval Network. Those times in speaking with him he often had a story to tell me, sometimes gave me a history lesson on parts of Colorado and before the phone conversation was over he always made me laugh. I know Jerry will be truly missed by those who knew him and those of us who only knew the "voice" of Jerry will feel the loss of a good person as well. May God Bless the family and friends of Jerry Crockwell, you are all in our prayers.
