Love and prayers to all of the family, and friends. We first met when I worked at Finley Hospital, about 26 yrs ago! She's been my "other mom", ever since Because she introduced me to my then husband, and was blessed with 2 amazing kids! Was blessed to have Jeri and Jim in our lives, and continued all these years to send birthday cards, holiday cards, and keep in touch with phone calls or visits at her work.She will be dearly missed.

Love and prayers to all of the family, and friends. We first met when I worked at Finley Hospital, about 26 yrs ago! She's been my "other mom", ever since ?

She will be dearly missed?

I worked with Jeri at Cherry Burrell. We both worked the switchboard. She was the easiest person to work with. She always had a smile for everyone. She took many people under her wing. She even took care of the birds , squirrels and other animals that wandered into her yard and always made sure there was food and water for them. She had taken in several homeless dogs and cats over the years. She was such a loving and compassionate person . I will miss her very much and so will may others. We will never forget her. Sending sincere sympathy to her family. I am so sorry for your loss.

My Deepest Sympathy to Jeri's Family at this time. I was a Switchboard Operator for 16 years at The Finley Hospital, and worked with Jeri and knew her quite well. She was the Sweetest, Kindest woman I ever met, she always knew the right thing to say and do. It was a Great honor to work with her and be her Friend. I will always carry Jeri in my heart and hold good thoughts for her. We lost our co-worker Melanie Hinman as well, so this is a double hit to my core. My very Best to the Family. You will be in my Prayers.

My deepest sympathy in this time of loss. Will greatly miss the cards from my “other Mom” and the phone calls. AND the iced tea. Please know I am there in heart. I will light a candle at church in here name.

My sincere thoughts and prayers to Jeri's family for their Great Loss. I loved talking to her and she always had a smile and kind word to say. She will be greatly missed by her Finley Family .

Jeri had nothing but a lovely greeting and a smile on her face to all who came in contact with her. I looked forward to her calling me on my weekend to work letting me know the newspapers were in and ready to be picked up, because as soon as I made my way to her desk we always took a few minutes to chat and catch up. She was a lovely lady and treated everyone with compassion and respect. My sincere condolences to her family and friends. Her Finley Family will definitely miss her.

I know that I speak for all of the Finley family who knew Jeri that she will be missed. I worked with her for all of the years she was at Finley Hospital and she a great worker and a loyal friend. Her humor and helpfulness will remain her legacy. My sincere condolences to her family and other dear ones.

I spoke to Jeri on a daily basis back in the 1980's thru work. Due to a job change I seldom got to talk to her anymore, but we kept in touch thru holiday cards. I was lucky enough to talk to her last Saturday as she was working and so was I. We "promised each other" we would get together for lunch this year! I was very shocked and saddened to see of her passing. Your family has my sincere sympathy as she was a wonderful lady and a great friend.

Our deepest sympathies to your family. May God grant eternal rest to her soul. Dave & Tracy Huk
