Gerald Raymond Jacobson

First, allow me to say I'm very sorry for your loss. Jerry worked for me in tech support at Dept. of Workforce Development. I've stated on more than one occasion that he was the best "hire" I ever made. He was competent, dependable and good humored in a job that was very stressful and required excellent people skills, which he had in abundance. My favorite memory of Jerry is of one day when he was late for work, a most unusual occurrence. When I asked what had held him up he replied that he was up late after bowling a 300 game! Of course I congratulated him, but he said that he was a little sorry that he had done this so early in life because now all he had left to do was to get a hole in one! I'm sorry he never did. He was a good man and a good friend - he will be missed, but not forgotten... Bill Ballhorn

KATHY, so sorry to hear of Jerry's passing. I greatly enjoyed the times spent playing softball and fishing with him and the guys from the team up north. He always had a beaming smile on his face. Our deepest sympathies to you and your family. Jim and Jane Zantow

This is such sad news. I worked with Jerry at the Dept. of Workforce Development for many years. My deepest condolences to the family. He was a good person and great to work with. God bless your family.

So very sad to hear about Jerry's passing. I worked with Jerry at the Department of Workforce Development for many years.. He was such a great, kind, caring man, with a great sense of humor, who always went out of his way to take care of our computer problems. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Kathy So sorry to hear about Jerry. I worked with him pre-DILHR. Not sure if it was Sorbus, Bell Atlantic or DecisionOne Corp. (kept changing our names.) I remember when I would send him a call to take, he always let me know he "was on his way". Hugs to you all. Shirley Everson
