I, along with all my immediate family, was so saddened by your loss of such a righteous man. I regret that I could not attend his funeral or burial ceremonies but please know that we were with you in spirit and love you all.

Tina/Brandi/Michael: We are so sorry to hear of your loss. It was such an inspiration to see Jerry's attitude and optimism in the midst of such a trial. I admire his bold witness for the Lord Jesus and I know that Jerry is rejoicing with Him now! We are praying for God's comfort and blessing upon you. 2 Cor 1: 3-5 Chris & Miriam

Tina, I am so sorry about your loss. I never saw Jerry without a smile on his face. I know that Tim will surely miss him as they've been friends for many years. I pray that God will give you and your family strength and courage. T J Archer

Tina and family, I am so sorry for your loss and praying for you all.

Tina and family, I'm so sorry to learn of Jerry's passing. He fought a good fight! And you were faithful to fight with him side by side. Each of you are in my prayers today and in the days ahead.

Tina, Brandi, Michael, Hagan Jr., Teresa, Traci and family, Jerry is a Godly man, full of truth and not ashamed of JESUS. We shared our witness and awareness of our sin and it's only remedy. I am thankful to know him, see his integrity alive in front of many, especially his beloved. While able, Jerry walked the straight and narrow path that is a well-lived life, a devoted servant in front of HIS cross. Now, HE and Jerry are saying, "Victory"! Tina's exceeding fine character same as Jerry's - full of biblical truth, devotion and love for one another. Brandi and Michael reflect your genuineness among others. They show the once plentiful, now rare image of what it means to follow CHRiST. Tina, Brandi, Michael - all is well in HIS Kingdom for HE never changes. HIS promises are true and real, for the loved ones called according to HIS purpose. Thankful - overwhelmed really - to consider Hagan and Phyllis' beloved children. You 3 also reflect the amazing love they shared, and continue to show their love for one another, alive within you. Others do see that bond in you and your lives. Hagan Jr (Nennia), Teresa (Kenny), Traci (Rusty). Full of faith, love and charity. Thank GOD for you. GOD is the ultimate gift giver. Seven gifts to some, but not all 7 to all: Life itself is a fragile miracle; to some the promise of never-ending life - saving faith; the calling; the hearth; to some children; and joyful knowledge that HE is their Savior. And finally, to see HIM face-to-face. Shout! Jerry received all 7 gifts. Now we witness again the bible alive: "Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of HIS saints." Psalm 116:15 Oh, how I long to be with him. His middle name is lovely. Allen Ernest Quillen Maryville, TN
