The morning after the Waldo Canyon Wildfire came into the city Jerry called in a favor to his Firefighter family who rolled a truck to our cul-de-sacof the 19 homes that were on our street, 4 were still standing, the first being ours...he was our very own hero that day and Firefighters will forever be our heroes! His contagious laugh will always be in our memories. Huge love and prayers, Aaron and Jolene Butler
