Condolences
Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Ron and Audrey. As fellow MSU grads we’re thrilled to learn that Jerry was a Gopher too! My dad adored both of your parents and I have such sweet memories of them. Mr Kinzi was one of my favorite BHS teachers. A serious man but I could always see his kind grin behind the football tough guy look. “A J A space” will live on forever in my mind!

I never had the pleasure of knowing Gerry but his son, Ron and family are dear friends. May all the individuals that Gerry was connected to throughout his life hold all the memories close to their hearts. May his memory surround you with love and compassion and Gerry’s spirit forever be within your hearts.

My husband and I would like to send our condolences to Jerry's family. Jerry and Joan lived next door to us when we lived in Belmond during the late 1980's. We so enjoyed having them as our neighbors. They are some of our fondest memories from living in Belmond.

A-J-J-SPACE Why in the hell do I still know this? Ha!. Anyone who took Coach Kintzi's typing class will know what I mean and can still hear his practice lessons in our heads. I can still remember having typing word speed contests in class with the Negrete's and others and always getting my chubby fingers jammed in between the keys. You had to admire him as my lineman coach and he took the job seriously and wanted us all to be our best. Could have used water on those 2-A-Days though! I know Dad always liked fishing with Coach as he told us you always caught fish when Kintzi was with you. Will miss you Coach. To that Smith Corona in the sky.

I’m so sorry about your dad’s/husband’s passing. He was such a wonderful teacher and AD. He always had a smile on his face. He will be remembered fondly.
