My sympathies to Jerome’s family. I met him while he worked 3M (Contractor). I was “Stockroom Donna”and he never forgot me after we both retired. He knew my dad, John Deere tractors, and Gopher Campfire, so we always had something to chat about. Sorry for your loss. Love and hugs.
Carolyn Beauford says

My sympathies to the Reiner family, Jerome taught me many things like how to bale and stack hay when it was always 110 degrees outside, how to finish concrete, he told me “it’s just like frosting a cake”! I really don’t know if Jerome ever frosted a cake? And ironically I learned how to saw concrete after said concrete cracked and settled. Thank you Jerome for all the things that you taught me! Rest in peace my friend!
Marj & Nic Frieler & Family says
