Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Our sympathies go out to the family. We used to live next door to Jerry and Woody and they were the best neighbors you could ask for. Rest in peace, Jerry.
From the first time I met Jerry and Woody I fell in love with them…they were so special to me and my children while living in Wichita..My favorite photo of the Hipps/Wachholz and my son,Joshua sits on my night stand. I remember the many lunches we shared after Sunday AM worship..those memories I will always cherish..May God bless you all during this difficult time..Jerry will be missed by all that knew and love her…Love alway, Loretta Loge
My thoughts and prayers are with your family. My mother – Twila Hendrickson -always had a special place in her heart for Jerry. She was a beautiful lady.
