Jerry, I remember you as a big strong tough guy in Junior High...once I met you I realized you had a very kind heart and you were loyal to those you cared about. You were real with everyone you met...nothing fake about you. I admired that. I pray for peace for your children and your family. Rest in Peace Jerry

Gone But Never Forgotten, Jerry DePratter (the Gentle Giant) will live on in the hearts of those knew & loved him. Fly high with the angels Jerry.

I only knew Jerry briefly back in Junior high, but he was very memorable. So sorry to hear about his passing.

I'm sorry Jerry D.... I hope you didn't suffer. I hope nothing but the best for your family and extended family. Thanks for being a big bodyguard kind of a brother to me and Jesse Dean when we were kids. I wish for a safe and struggle free life for all your kids and grandkids and for your wife from this second forward.
Heart and thoughts won't fade buddy. Godspeed,
Phil
