In 1957 June and Jerry bought a live-in grocery store in Snohomish on the corner of Pine and Maple. Jerry had many careers among them being the first paid Fire Marshall in the city of Snohomish.
He was a great husband, father and grandfather and his wisdom, common sense, and knowledge of how to fix almost anything will be missed.

As long as hearts remember
As long as hearts still care
We do not part with those we love
They're with us everywhere
