Korean War.
Jerome loved doing things outside like gardening, camping, many little projects and was the
handiest man we knew. There wasn’t anything he couldn't do, he always said he’s a jack of all
trades but master of none. Something he excelled at was telling jokes, he had a joke for every
occasion that was sure to make you laugh.
He left a void in all of our hearts but will be filled with the love he had for us all and all the
memories we have of him.
