    I remember hanging out with my great great uncle in Poplar about 12 years ago. We would go work around his house and his trailer then “sneak” into town and have a few red beers without Joan knowing. I remember Jerry always having a joke and a smile and wanting to talk. I do believe I learned one of my favorite cuss words from him too. You will be missed Jerry.

    Thoughts and prayers to the Hagadone family in the loss of Jerry. I grew up across the street from Joan and Jerry and Joans folks . He was always ready to visit and always could make me laugh. He will be missed by everyone who got a chance to meet him. A hard worker and an all around good man. Hugs to all of Jerry’s family and friends. I’m so sorry for your loss. He lived a good life and now it’s time to rest and I know his bride is happy to see him ❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️🦋
