Jerry's Dad is 95 years old. This is a picture of him 2 years ago when he came from Rockford, Illinois to visit Jerry at the shop. Jerry was so proud to show his business to his dad. Jerry started out in his dad's car alignment shop sweeping floors when he was a young kid . His dad retired in the 1950's and handed over the shop to Jerry and his brother, Carl. Then Jerry went on to bigger equipment and bigger vehicles.
Jerry's mom died about 5 years ago. Last Thursday Vern couldn't get out of bed and the paramedics were called. It was assumed he had been having small strokes. I spoke to him on Friday and he sounded chipper but his words were slurred. Finally he kept getting worse and passed away Sunday evening.

Please tell Jerry we are so sorry.
I am so sorry to hear that for the both of you, love and prayers for you and your family.
