Dear Juanita and Family,
Jerry was very special to me . We understood what each other was saying to one and another and we got a lot accomplished together. He was the smartest Roofer I ever met and could see a project differently than any other competitor. All my other roofing contractors complained about Jerry being too cheap to do the work when in reality he was hitting Home Runs! I loved Jerry as a person and had the upmost respect for him and of him. He was a great Human Being that loved to be in the middle of the action and he loved the two women of his life! Juanita , I'm sure you and your Mother will really miss him. Call me anytime if you want to talk. Michael

Grandpa,
I miss you so much,
This is our temporary home, it's not where we belong
Windows and rooms that we're passing through
This is just a stop on the way to where we're going
I'm not afraid because I know
This is our temporary home.
I love you grandpa.

In Gods House are many mansions, God has called my Uncle home to fix the roofs on those Mansions. Uncle Jerry, I will always remember your big smile and generous heart. You touched many in different ways threw out your life. You worked hard all your life to provide for you family. We all know the pain you endured in your finally years. Uncle Jerry you are no longer in that pain. To the Henry Family; no words can express your sorrow at this time. You all know that your Husband,Father,Grandpa loved each and everyone of you deeply. Don't grief, but be happy in knowing that now you have the special Angel looking over all of you. May God rest your soul Jerry Henry.

Juanita, I know your Daddy has struggled for some time and I know it wasn't easy for you to watch. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers...no matter how old they are or how old we are, to a daughter, he will always be "Daddy." I understand your sorrow and I share your grief. Love you. Kris
