    Well that’s not what I meant to do. This goes without saying, everyone knows, Jerry was a great mentor, teacher and leader in the motorcycling world around our neck of the woods. I met Jerry shortly after building my first bike. Jerry helped along the way introducing me to people to find parts, riding regularly in my younger years. Jerry was usually leading or taking up the rear, always looking out for everyone’s safety and offering tips and advise along the way. Brothers to End. No, I didn’t go so far as to get the tattoo, but the feeling was there.

    Jerry will be dearly missed.

      Terry and I are together because of Jerry King, Jerry is the one who introduces us together. It was at Opryland when we had a Boat show for Triton Boats. Jerry was a true friend to everyone he met. Good die young. I know Heaven is a better place because of Jerry being there. See you again one day. God Bless
