Lit a candle in memory of Jerry D. Nelson
I attended McLean-Waynesville High School with Jerry and will always remember how he lifted my spirits when I was feeling down. He was always there for anyone who needed a smile or a laugh. It has been many years since I saw Jerry but I have never forgotten what a wonderful outgoing person he was. My sincere sympathy to all of his friends and family–Joan Rousey Reineke
So Very Sorry to hear about your loss….
I was Jerry's 4th grade teacher, and still remember his happy personality. The picture you posted captures his smile perfectly. I have had no contact with Jerry or his family in years, but I know that he must have brought joy to his family and to all in his world. –Fondly remembered by Mary Green
