Jerry was always a great fella and businessman. We had many a good visit over the years. He will surely be missed.

I done a good bit of business with Jerry way back 42,or 43 years ago, and till last year or so, some business.
I think fondly of Jerry Johnson in his passing.

Started dealing with Jerry in the early 90’s and over the years became pretty close. He became somewhat of a mentor to me as far as the industry and in business in general. He will be sorely missed.


life is good......

Very sad news about Jerry, I had a trip with the grandsons planned for Wednesday.
He was a Good Man.

I never meet Charlie.
