Jerry Young

One downfall of my business is I occasionally have to pick up people that I have known. Many times it's a blessing because I can be there for the family. However today I picked up a guy who worked for me for several years back in the 80's when I had my cleaning business. He was an asset and helped me more than he knew. We were working nights and traveling from store to store (we had to keep each other awake lol). He was an asset and helped me more than he knew. WE HAD FUN!! I was just starting the business and was working days soliciting new business and taking care of Marsh Supermarkets floor care. One time we left the Eagledale store and headed towards the Greenwood store. I went to sleep and when I woke up I looked around and not recognizing anything I said "Where in the hell are we Jerry!?!" He said " Oh I missed my turn." We were in GREENFIELD!! He was an asset and helped me more than he knew. BUT WE HAD FUN!! Many times we would meet on the westside at the Shell station at Crawfordsville Rd and High School Rd and Jerry would park his car there and we would take off in the van for the night. We had done this for weeks. One morning we came back and his car was gone! I asked the manager if he saw anyone steal the car. He said " I had it towed". I asked why and he said "because I wanted it off the lot". I said he should pay the towing fee since we had permission to leave it there. He refused. I contacted the district manager to no avail. At this time $70 was a lot of money to me. My family and I had used Shell gasoline for years and I told them I would never put another drop of Shell gas in any vehicle as long as I lived. It has been 30 years and thousands of gallons later and I have stuck to my pledge. I'm sure they don't care nor have they missed the thousands of dollars. BUT WE HAD FUN!! Kind of long winded but Jerry never forgot how I stood up for him. He was an asset and helped me more than he knew. I often go on the west side of Indy and would always think of him and wonder how and what he was doing. He was a hell of a worker and would do anything I asked him to do. AND WE HAD FUN!! He was an asset and helped me more than he knew. I would take him and other crew members to the track every year for corporate appreciation day. He and the others loved going there. Especially Jerry since there was LOTS OF FREE FOOD!! You see, Jerry was a rather corpulent fellow and he LOVED FOOD! Unfortunately that may have been the reason for his demise. BUT WE HAD FUN!! He was an asset and helped me more than he knew. REST IN PEACE MY OLD PAL!! I HOPE YOU'RE HAVING FUN!!

The Young Family, We are saddened by the lost of Jerry this past Friday, however we know he is in a better place with the family and is resting in peace. We offer our condolences during this time of your loss. However, we all should remember Jerry's life and the time we shared together. We must cherish these memories and keep them dear to our hearts as we move on in our life, for he has not left us but only moved on into a resting peace which we will see him in our own time. We must all celebrate his life and the short time we had together and always cherish the fond memories until we are together. Jerry, Rest In Peace.

My condolences to the family. There is hope of a resurrection. The bible book Acts 24:15 says there will be a resurrection of the righteous and the unrighteous. Please keep this hope in mind and if you would like to learn of more hope the bible provides please visit jw.org. If you would like someone to assist you with more bible knowledge you may request a person to help you. May the wonderful memories of Jerry your loved one provide comfort to you during this difficult time.

My best friend in grade school. I'm sorry we lost contact all those years, but I've never forgot you my friend. I'll always remember that laugh of yours. RIP

Jerry was my first cousin and I have many fun memories growing up together. He was a good person and will be missed. He is with his heavenly family now may he rest in peace.

My sincere condolences to the family. 1 Thessalonians 4:13, "so too God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in death through Jesus" May you find comfort and peace in these reassuring words, during this most difficult time.
