A special thank you to all the nurses, and staff at Mercy Hospital in Oklahoma City who gave wonderful care to our Mother.
Jerilyn was an amazing wife, mother, daughter, grandma, sister and aunt. She loved being surrounded by family. She enjoyed reading, gardening, and taking care of her family. Her strength and courage were an inspiration to everyone, especially her family. She was always there when anyone needed her, loved unconditionally and truly had a heart of gold.
She will be remembered as someone who always put others before herself. Jerilyn will be deeply missed by her family and those who knew her.
