“RIP Jerry Jarrett 🕊️

You were good to my dad when he was having a hard time catching a break. I’ll never forget it.

You were also good to me when I had $7 bucks in my pocket. I’ll never forget it.

Thank you for taking care of my family.

Stay strong Jeff. I understand the pain brother. ‘Son’s of wrestlers’

What a life. What an impact he had. What a business he loved.”
