Jerry, you were missed at Sears once you had left us. Your smiles and humour brightened the days. My sincere condolences to the family and friends left behind.

My condolences and deep sympathy to Jerry's family. Trivial pursuit was his game and he was real good at it too, knowledgeable and wise.
Jerry sure knows how to lighten things up with some of his sense of humor.
Rest in peace, blessed are the gentle.

My deepest sympathies to Jerry's family. I worked with Jerry at Sears for about 20 years and as a member of the coffee group he always entertained us. Jerry would always tell it like it was and gave us new kids on the block sound insight and advice. He is remembered fondly and sorely missed.

Please accept my condolences on the passing of Gerry. Before he worked at Massey Ferguson Gerry worked at Ford Motor for a short time. We worked together as computer programmers and I truly enjoyed working with him. We had a lot of fun together, he had a great sense of humor. He left his mark even after he left Ford, When we ran certain progams a page would pop up saying the Cobra was watching. Naturally we had to find his special computer code and change it.
He got the nick name Cobra because he told us the story of once when he struck out on a bad pitch in a softball game. The article about the game said Gerry was the Cobra, because he would strike at anything.
I have not seen Gerry in many years but I still remember him as a good person. Again please accept my sympathies on your loss.

To Gerry's family,
So very sorry to hear of this sad news. I remember fondly how he spoke of his beloved dog when I would visit him at work. Such a nice man, and he will be remembered by all of us fondly.
With Deepest Sympathy

My deepest condolences to all Jerry's family. May God comfort you.
Jerry was a good person, good co-worker and good neighbour.
I always enjoyed talking to Jerry, he was very knowledgeable.
He left knowing that many people care for him.

Sorry for your loss. I grew up with the LaCombe Family on Abington St. in Detroit, Michigan. I remember his parents and brother Tom. A nice family!
