    Is there an obituary that can be linked? And is anyone here willing to say some nice things?

    This is very sad news. :( With his extensive passenger equipment knowledge, we've lost a very valuable member of the railfan community. He will be missed.

    Did Jerry live in North Carolina? There's a Jerry LaBoda on a Carolinas railfan forum and I've long wondered if it were the same fellow. Sad to read of his death.

    This is precisely what went thru my mind when I saw Jerry's name. He was a walking varnish encyclopedia. My deepest condolences to his family.
