Jerry's newspaper career included papers in Nampa, Caldwell and Boise; Bend and Corvallis, Ore., and 33 years as Classified Advertising Manager for the Napa Valley Register.

The Hunter family would like to offer its deepest thanks and appreciation to the Napa Fire Department and staff of Queen of The Valley ER and ICU for their efforts and assistance.
