Sue, I'm so sorry about the loss of Jerry. My prayers are with you and your family. May Jesus comfort you and give you peace. Ruby Kessell.

I am blessed to say that I knew Jerry. He's been my neighbor my entire life. I grew up with Jerry and Andrea. Jerry's legacy is that he always witnessed to everyone about the Lord and always helped anyone he could. When TJ was laid off, Jerry gave him side jobs to help us out by letting him help with mowing or ditch digging. He was faithful to the Lord and to Goldtown church in so many ways. Special man with tremendous love! Heaven gained a faithful servant!! Thankful to have known Jerry. Love and prayers for all of you!

We grew up together he was born in 1942 we were babies together he was my first friend and remained my good friend through our entire lives .. I am so heart sick about the loss of me life long friend.. we did everything together went all through school together went to church together 4-H club together our parents was also good friends we visited each other often grew up playing everything together we never went out of our hollow without stopping at their house he was such a special good man was an example and inspiration to all that knew him and such a blessing to everyone will surely be missed by many.. He was truly a Christian man whose values will go on through all the lives of those he touched .He was an example of what a true Christian should be a great family man and a man of God my heart felt sympathy love and prayers to entire family.. Janet, Jerry and Bill are like mine and my brother Fry brothers and sisters all m my love and prayers are with you is this terrible loss!!

I am so sorry to hear about Jerry. He wasn't just a colleague but a dear, dear friend. He was always there to help where needed, loved talking about and helping kids with Soapbox Derby. I could always count on him for our yearly Washington, DC trip with my 5th graders. I think he enjoyed it as much as the kids did. He loved working with kids and never lost his sense of humor with them. His dedication to the church was obvious especially at Easter egg time, but the most important thing to him was his belief and acceptance of Jesus Christ. You will certainly be missed Jerry, but I know that you are at peace and have finally made it home. I'm proud to have worked with you, had the honor of teaching your children, for your friendship and advice over the years, and for the example you set for everyone you came in contact with.

My most heartfelt condolences to the family of Jerry . We went to school together, played football together. He was a good friend.. He will be missed..

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family for the loss of Jerry. I remember him well from Coopers Creek Advent Church where my Dad was the Pastor. It was fun riding with him in his convertible. He was a great man and will be missed by all. Love to all of you during this sad time.

Sue, we are sorry for this loss of Jerry, he was such a big part of our family, from watching Greg grow up and being the first to spank his butt in school, which Greg still likes to tell people about, we all had the utmost respect for Jerry. Adrian ditch digging with him when he was younger to Soap Box Derby days, days that I know Adrian won't forget. Seeing him at our dinner table if just for coffee and a talk, we will truly miss the time with him. Carolyn and Greg Pennington and our family

Mrs. Cavender, Jerry, and Andrea, I'm so sorry for your loss. Love and prayers for you all.

My thoughts,prayers and love goes out to the family. I was one of Mr. Cavenders students,I was in his 4th grade class,many years ago,I'm same age as his daughter. He taught me alot,and was a great teacher,and nice man. Of all my teachers throughout my school days,he was my fave,and stood out in my life more than anyone. He will be missed. My condolences go out to the family.

I too was a friend of Jerry. He even did ditch digging work for me on two separate occasions and installed my water hook-up. He did the same for my mother. He loved to talk with us. I already miss him, but, thank the Lord, I will see him again.

Sue my prayers are with you and your family family. I was shocked and heartbroken to hear of Jerry's passing. He was so much fun to work with and always had a story to tell. Loved going on his Travel WV field trip. My girls absolutely loved him and lived his stories!

So sorry to the family for he was a great man. I had him for 4th grade and talked to often n the community. He will b missed. R.I.P. Mr. Cavender.

May God comfort this family with this great loss. Such an amazing man always our friend. He helped my grandchildren in the soap box derby and was always so kind. He will surely be missed

Sue and Family, I offer my sincere condolences to you and your family. I was very sorry to hear that Jerry had passed away. I did not have the opportunity to know Jerry well. He and my husband would have been good friends. My husband loves to talk and has never met a stranger. I did not realize that he attended the University of Aurora. My father was born in Aurora, Illinois. It is very sad to lose someone that you love. Cherish the memories. He lives in your heart. Larry and Nancy Wolfe
