"My deepest sympathy. I can't make it to the wake due to illness. I'm going to miss him so much. He always made me smile and laugh. I loved when he came to our Larson family gathering. I loved getting him into technology. I got a snapchat of him. The best one was facetime. I would call Mom Ginny and he would be up visiting the folks and having tea. I just had facetimed him a few weeks ago. The memory I have is going up in his plane. That was amazing. .Also all the time he visited us. Such a beloved man. Will miss him. God bless you all. "
In loving memory of
Jerry Wesley
