Was very sorry to hear of Jerry's passing. I have many pleasant memories of our visits to Wisconsin, from way back in the 40's, and later when he lived in Waverly, Iowa. We shared an interest in cars and racing. I'll miss him. This photo is from around 1954. The people you don't recognize are my Mom (Inez Borland). brother Jeff and myself (behind Jim & David).
