In Loving Memory of Jerry Aspinwall

Gerald Moore Aspinwall "Jerry" "I can resist anything except temptaton."

Jerry was a very gifted person in many ways, especially in art. He could draw anything to scale or for fun. He was a member of the football team, the basketball team, the baseball team, in the band, on the Annual Staff, in the Commercial Club, the Hi-Y, the 4-H Club, a Senior Favorite for "the Cutest" along with Wilo Dene Giddens and for the "Most Talented" along with Catherine Bass. He went to Georgia Tech, but I'm not sure if he graduated or not. He made an invention of a gun part that was/is being used by the U.S. Government. Later he began diving with different teams and for awhile he was a diver with Jacque Cousteau (of National Geographic fame). I don't remember the exact year he died. At the time of his death, he was living alone and died after going into a diabetic coma. Not sure of exact date of death but it was probably 1977, 78 or 79.
