Posted at 22:38h, 09 MayI am saddened greatly for the loss of an old friend. I’m glad we reconnected last year after not seeing each other for many years. We had a great time together at car shows usually parking our Mustangs side by side and spending the days talking about family (especially grandkids) and old times. I will miss him terribly, and my heart goes out to his family. He was so proud of his kids and grandkids. Rest with the angels, my friend.

Posted at 23:56h, 09 MayThe loss of Jerry Boggs is a devastating blow. Not only was he a brother, he was a good friend and a trusted friend – always ready to help when one was in need and always there for people. He will be missed so much. We love you, Jerry, and we love your family. The world was a better place with you in it. Now, heaven will be.
