My heartfelt sympathy to the loss of Jerry. He and Ethel are members of the church that I attend and they are very kind and gracious people. We will miss seeing Jerry but I know that he is with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Jerry was a wonderful human being. He will be missed. Love to all of the family.
I was sadden to learn of Mr. Klingenberg’s passing. His smile was priceless and with 63 years of marriage you have many, many memories to thank God for. Bless you and your family and give your little dog a big hug. I enjoy seeing you the times we met on the walking trail with our pets and share a few words. May you have peace and joy in this new year and know you and Jerry will rejoice in your heavenly home someday.

My heart weeps with you but I rejoice that I had the opportunity to be blessed to know Jerry. My life was enriched by being able to share a portion of his earthly journey. I also rejoice to know there will be a reunion some day. Until that time may sweet memories and knowing you are loved and prayed for by friends, help you through these difficult days. Love and prayers, Jean Holmes
