Thread: We have Lost a Friend

Jery told me he had some great pics of Specks they have been catching and he was going to post them, maybe Jimmy will want to share them with us at the memorial.
Sure am gonna miss Jery, really fun to fish with him. Rest in peace my friend.

please post a picture if you could, I am not from there but wonder if I had seen or even talked with him when I have been on the pier ....so sorry for all your loss, of a fine friend

I would like to make a wreath in his honor to hang at the pier for a week or so ( however long it will last) do you think there would be any issues with that? I am planning on going down in the morning.

Just be sure to ASK Teresa or Ranger Randy so they will know what it is about and there shouldn't be a problem.


Jimmy mentioned to me the speck pics Jere had been 'saving up' to post. I gave him a business card with the website address and he said he'd like to post the pics for Jere.
Some great memories there! Those two brothers could fill a box with trout like few can!!

I think he was a friend I hadn't met yet. My condolences to the family.

Today I called jerys phone to make sure we were going to fish our flounder holes for the rodeo and that's when jimmy told me what had happened.... It really did seem to help jimmy just to have someone to talk to about his brother so if u do see him make sure u talk to him he really needs it!!!

I lost a bunch of photos in a crash a while back, but have been searching my backups and finally found a photo of our friend Jery. This was taken April 4, 2011

My thoughts exactly. My condolences to all of those who were close to him and to his family.

Love and support to his family.

His brother Jimmy said they fished several piers over the years all around Mobile Bay, but the community on the Gulf State Park Pier was the one he liked best and felt mostly a part of. It's like we too have lost a member of the family!
