Condolences for the family of “R. Jere Huber”
Mrs. Huber & Family,
Please accept our sympathy. We have such good memories of Mr. Huber; he had a garden plot in back of our home on E. Petersburg Rd. We would see him on a regular basis out there working, such a happy gentleman. He even shared some of his produce with us; ever so kind.
He will certainly be missed by many. Know that we care about all of you as you work thru this difficult time.
We care.
Dear Louise & Family:
We are so sad to hear of Jere’s passing. We had so much fun with Jere & Harold when I was growing up. We always looked forward to visiting Aunt Edna & Uncle Roy and the family. Jere was always such a jokester. He always had us laughing. We will miss him. Our prayers are with you and the family.
May God’s love heal your sorrow and replace your heartache with warm and loving memories.
Love,
Kathy (Gere’s Cousin) & Paul Bercher
