Heartfelt sympathy goes out to Jerry’s family. Especially my best friend Frank. Jerry always treated me as if I were his child. On the weekends, I spent more time with the whiz family than my own. The days at Bethany Beach were some of the best days of my life. Best wishes to the family. Love Tricia Sypniewski
