Condolences for Jerome Walter David Groff

Jerry I'm so glad we got to be friends. RIP & see you again someday along with my loved ones.

Will remember the trips up north or fishing, the sleepovers at and I had, and your warm smile. Will miss you dad. Rest in peace

Loved the memories of the trips up north, the sleepovers at your house, and your friendly smile. Will miss you. Rest in peace dad.

My cousin Jerome was a very kind-hearted affectionate cousin to me. He will be missed. His weekly or bi-weekly calls asking how I was and how Aunt Elvira was, will be missed. I am glad we had the opportunity to celebrate his birthday in March, the last time I saw him, to let him know he was loved.

Jerome was a great brother. I looked up to him and tagged along whenever I could. He loved to play tennis when we were kids, so of course I did too. I never could win a game from him. We played canasta and rummy royal, and various other games, and sometimes I won. My dad made us these wooden forts for his army men and we would play for hours. When Glen and I moved to Colorado he and Roseanne visited us in Colorado Springs and then later he traveled to Pueblo two times. He met many of our friends on these visits and he would ask about different ones from time to time. One of my past coworkers told me that she thought she knew my brother because I talked about him so much. On the birthday card he sent me this past March he wrote "Hugs and Kisses Forever". Though we were separated by many miles he was always on my mind. He will forever be in my heart. Rest in peace dear Jerome. Love you! Your favorite sister, Mary
