From Grant and Lil Mehling

The family and the world have lost a true friend, always known for his gentle personality and sense of humor. His concern for others shone through. My wife Lil and I got to know Jerry and Karen in Sundance Park in Yuma since they began wintering there.

This winter Lil was up a ladder picking oranges off a tree in front of our park model. Across the street sat Jerry and his friends having an afternoon beer. Jerry called across the street and told her that they would pick the top oranges "someday when they had nothing to do"! That was Jerry and he did find a day with nothing to do.

It is no surprise that Karen is making good progress----there is no other way that would be good enough for her. We wish for her the best recovery possible and that someday we will be able to share a few moments with her again.

But, Sundance won't be the same with out Jerry.
