Jerry, Bob Page and I came Colo A&M the fall of 1950. Jerry joined a frat. and Bob and I worked at the Campus Shop and made it our Frat !
Bob left school in 1952 and Jerry and I finished school and received AF ROTC commissions. I flew as a Navigator in the Pacific and lost total track of Jerry until a few months ago.... when I learned he was in Cripple Creek. I tried to phone and e-mail him many time.. but no answers... I'm sorry we didn't have the chance to become reaquainted..

It sounds like he had a full life and was always on the move... My sympathy to his family
