Brother, my friend…

Your life meant so much to mine. You were always what I needed when I needed it most. Your family welcomed me in as family, and the warmth still remains.

Although we grew apart for many years, I was able to hear your voice, look into your eyes, touch your hand one last time… and say goodbye.

There are so many memories that are hard on my heart right now, but my smile will return in time, as I share those memories with others.

Return to the love from which you were made;
Rejoin with the love that went before you;
Prepare to greet the love that will follow.

God bless you my friend.

Extending our deepest condolences to my cousin’s and the entire Jongeneelen family with the passing of your brother Jerry.
Sending you all love at this difficult time.

Dear friend, my heart is so broken with your loss. I was blessed to get to work with you . Until we meet again I can’t express how I feel. My condolences to the family

Ian. My condolences for your loss.

My deepest condolences to Jerry’s family and friends. He was a beloved and respected character at Huron: he was a part of the place and its community. I am profoundly saddened by his loss.

Jerry was one of the first people I met at Huron. Over the decade or so the I knew him, we had many interesting and memorable conversations, especially as we started building the letterpress studio (with which he had a bit of a history from earlier in life). I have missed Jerry’s presence over the past several months and grieve his death with you. As president of the Faculty Association, I also want to extend my condolences on behalf of our faculty and librarian colleagues at Huron. The college won’t be the same without him.

Kim and I will miss Jerry he became a very dear friend rest in peace brother 😢

Our sincerest condolences to the Jongeneelen family. I worked with Gerry for 35 years and was proud to call him a friend as well as a coworker.

Mickey and I were sorry to hear the sad news of Jerry’s passing. Jerry was our neighbour at Shelter Valley Campground. We will miss our chats. RIP Jerry

Had the pleasure of working with Jerry for a year at Huron. Quickly considered him a friend. Thank you Jerry for your support and blessings in all my life’s goals and adventures. You will be missed brother

Deepest sympathy to Jerry’s family.

My deepest sympathies go out to the Jongeneelen family during this difficult time. I worked with Jerry for 14 years. While initially rough around the edges he was such an amazing person with a big heart. I have many memories of our chats and saving/ relocating various animals across campus. I will miss his Jerry stories, his laugh, and how deeply he cared for those around him. I am glad he is at peace now and will keep him close to my heart.

My deepest sympathies on the loss of Jerry. I worked with him at Huron and we had many great conversations. He was so dedicated to his family and friends and his work. He cared deeply about so many things. He will be missed.

I am so sorry for your loss. I am keeping you all in my heart.

I’m so sorry for your loss…

I enjoyed many chats with Jerry at Huron over the years. He always shared about his love for the great outdoors, his family, and his dog. It was a pleasure getting to know him over the years. He will be greatly missed.

My deepest condolences to the family during this difficult time. I worked with Jerry for almost 10 years at Huron and we had many conversations over the years – he was a very funny guy with a big heart and his presence has been missed on campus over the last several months. He was always there to help out when we needed it in the library. He will be sorely missed.

I am so sorry to hear this. Over my 10 years at Huron I’ve chatted with Jerry many times about random things – maintenance related and non. A particularly memorable interaction was the enthusiastic mini-crash course he gave me one time on how the new classroom/hallway ventilation systems work after they were renovated during COVID. A familiar and friendly face around the college, he will be missed. My deepest condolences to Jerry’s family and loved ones. JM

My sincerest condolences. Around Huron, Jerry was always kind and friendly, and keen to meet dogs. This is a such a sad loss.

I met Jerry when I first started as chaplain of Huron University. Jerry was incredibly kind to me and made me feel as though I had known him for years. His spirituality was evident in all of our conversations throughout the past two years. I will miss you Jerry. May you rest in peace and rise in glory.

I was so deeply sorry to hear about the loss of Jerry. He was such a pleasure to chat with and so well known around Huron University. His presence will be greatly missed. Please know my thoughts are with your family and friends during this difficult time.

My deepest condolences. I had the pleasure of working with Jerry at Huron, and I fondly remember many conversations that revealed his kind heart and how deeply he missed Nancy. He will be missed, and I am grateful to have known him.

My condolences to all of Jerry’s family and friends. He was a greatly valued presence at Huron, and he will be missed and fondly remembered by all.

My condolences to the Jongeneelen family for your loss. Jerry and I worked together at Huron and I will miss him greatly. We often talked about family, pets, and his new found love of riding this trike with his brother. He was a man who couldn’t sit still, had his own opinion on many subjects and was set in his ways. Then you got those one on one minutes with him where you got to see the real Jerry! I will miss our daily visits, his rants on subjects he felt strongly about, and the stories of his beloved pets. Rest in peace my friend, I’ll sure we’ll meet again.

So sorry for your loss. Jerry will be missed at Huron.

Sorry for your loss, I knew Jerry a short time, but he had a big heart, it didn’t take long to learn this.

Back with your wife and doggy.

RIP Jerry

From your Compass Family.

This is tragic. Jerry was such a good, thoughtful, funny and conscientious man. Through all my years at Huron as a student and then as it’s chaplain he was a fixture and a faithful. The Chapel was always well cared for and he made it a special place of his concern. He will be sorely missed.

May his memory be eternal and be for a blessing.

+William Cliff

I was so sad to hear about Jerry’s passing. I first met Jerry as a student at Huron and got to know him working together on a few projects during my time on the students’ council, and later as colleagues. He was always willing to lend a helping hand. I’ll miss running into him around campus and our friendly chats. Sending my love and prayers to his family, friends and fellow colleagues. Jerry, you will be missed.

My deepest condolences to Jerry’s family and dear friends. Thinking about you during this difficult time. I had the pleasure of working with Jerry for almost 15 years at Huron University and missed seeing him over the last several months. He was one of the first people I met at Huron. Jerry would stop over to talk to me everyday to give me advice, the ins and outs about Huron, endless stories, his time at the trailer, and his love for Nancy and the dogs. Jerry was such a dedicated employee and an important part of the Huron community. He is and will continue to be greatly missed. May you rest in peace, Jerry!

Sending my condolences to Jerry’s family and friends on this sad occasion. We worked together at Huron for many years. I valued him as a kind and dependable colleague and always enjoyed our chats, not to mention Jerry’s great sense of humour.

I’m so sad to hear this news. I worked with Jerry for decades at Huron. He was fun and funny and always seemed to be in a good mood. He liked a have a good chat, as did I. Although I’m retired from Huron, I know his presence there will be much missed. My sincerest condolences go out to his family and friends. He was such a good guy.

Jerry definitely left his prints at Huron University where I worked with him for over 20 years. he will be sadly missed by all his Compass coworkers
My heart goes out to the family at this difficult time

I knew Jerry and his wife Nancy for many years as their insurance broker. He was always kind and thoughtful and a wonderful person. The world is a little colder at his passing.

I am going to miss my chats at Huron with Jerry, at least twice a week. He could fix anything, including a leak in the sprinkler system in my office. I am so sad that I won’t see him again. My sincerest condolences to the family and friends. My heart goes out to Joe and Murray and Bonnie and the whole Huron team.

Was a very great honour to work with Jerry.
Both in floods and winter storms. In classrooms and in tunnels, he had my back. With very few complaints.
He will be dearly missed.
