Jerry passed away following his final heroic mission with his team of trained missionaries. While many of the details will remain classified, his team has confirmed that he stayed true to the mission goal and objectives and saw his team through to safety. While surrounded by the enemy, Jerry stood tall and faced them without fear. He stayed with his team and fought for them through the battle of his life. During this final battle Jerry fought hard and sacrificed everything for his family and team. He is the truest form of a patriot and hero and will leave this world with a void that cannot be filled.
