Jerry was a good man and a great asset to the Carlinville area. I remember him as a parent of my schoolmates, a chaperone on a 4-H trip to Chicago, and a great friend to my mom and dad. We had many good visits with him at Heritage Health in the last few years, and Gary and Sage came to regard him as a friend, too.

He will be missed.

Sympathy and prayers for the family. Jerry was always such a friendly guy with a great smile for everyone. RIP

Dean and Mag so sorry for the loss of your brother. Sending hugs and prayers to all of the Tetzlaff family and friends. Heaven received another angel and he will always watch over all of you until you see him again.

I so enjoyed talking with Gerry when I would visit my parents (Howard and Gladys Burleson) at Heritage. Gerry was a very loving and special man, and my heart goes out to all who will miss him. I am imaging the reunions in Heaven and find comfort knowing Gerry is once again spending time with his loved ones and friends who went before him.

MAGGIE and DEAN,

To The Family, so sorry to hear of Gerry's passing. Our friendship goes back to Grade school at Oakland School. Then Willie and I were neighbors to Gerry & Dot at Victorville Ca. He always had a smile and laugh to go along with it. He in now in a better place with no pain.
