We've known Jerry for many years running with the hot rod circuit. Every year we would look for him at hot rod events. Next year we won't need to look because we know he will be there with Little Red and God riding shotgun. RIP Jerry

I will always remember how happy Jerry was when I wrote a story for him from "Little Red." It was the day before his last car show in Alton. He told his friends,"can you imagine a little red truck writing to me?" I was inspired to give him a gift, and I'm sure he took it to heaven with him.RIP

He was my best friend. I've known Jerry for over 30 years. I worked with him for the past 5 years for Windsor and other contrators. My greatest memory is working with him on "Goldie" and "Little Red". Loved, Missed, but not forgotten. God must have wanted a Ford hot rod built, and so "he got the right man for the Job."RIP
