IN MEMORIAM
In more than 20 years as a member of The Valley of the Sun
Gardeners, Jerry served as President, Vice President, and board member of
both the Valley of The Sun Gardeners club and the AZ-NMN Region of The
Gardeners Of America/Men’s Garden Clubs of America. He was always a
cheerful volunteer at our club functions and one of the hardest workers.
He will be missed by all of us.

The courage to experiment
outside the planting window, ...
And the knowledge to know
the difference.
