Jerry's passing is sad news indeed but it brought back a flood of happy memories. And oh yes, that image of a young lady on each arm is an accurate one. Jerry loved the ladies and they loved him back. I understand his life got much more complicated after we grew apart but i remember his delight in the outrageous and his profound concern for the well-being of others. Out on one of our nefarious adventures, Jerry insisted on stopping by three very different people, I wasn't uncomfortable but in after thought realized that Jerry was somewhat of a "Country Doctor" just doing a standard sort of check-in on the lost and isolated. Care and concern is what he shared equally with all three and stood in surprising contrast to the hard partying we shared. Do I understand that his relationship to his religion became an increasingly important part of his life? And I don't know what took the last years of his life to the Kline/Galland house, but official greeter would have been a perfect role for him. God bless your kind soul and I'm grateful to have shared a part of my life with such an eccentric, complicated and compassionate man.

John, you were close...sort of. It was actually a 1949 Desoto. (See pic.) You might recognize the background also. The transmission was called "Fluid Drive". I'm amazed you remembered all of that. Way to go! Greg
