I was a childhood friend of Jerry's son Mike. We grew up together in Chippawa, ON. I spent a great deal of time at the Hexemer's house on Furlong in Chippawa, and I have fond memories of Jerry and the family from that time. Jerry was always very kind to me. When Mike and I were at the house, Jerry was pretty much always out in the garage working on his hotrod :) My condolences to Mike and the family. Kevin Anstey (416) 805-5759
