RIP Jerry,

That is one beautiful truck! Unfortunately in my business I have to see many great rides after the owners have died & the families are selling them off. Very Sad!

God Bless

He was able to sell prior, and is now in a museum in California.

Thank you for that Gary,

Very glad it is where it can be viewed & his family does not have the burden of selling it.

God Bless
Bill

That's about all I've been doing the last year, going to funerals and visitations for friends and people I've known all my life. A LOT of people.

Life is flashing by folks. As Jim Morrison of The Doors said, 'Nobody gets out of this alive.'

Sad news indeed. My condolences to the family. I met Jerry a couple times but didn't know him well and it's a shame I won't have that opportunity.
