Krystal Kill and Tasha Hynes: Saturdays in fall will never be the same

[GophersInIowa]

Jerry's daughters wrote a letter about their dad.

It was so hard to see our dad, the toughest man we know, make the hardest decision of his life. So hard to see him walk away from what he loves — not just the love of the game, but the love for all the people who surround him every day.

It was hard to watch him tell people he loves that he can no longer give them 110 percent. Hard because football has been our life. Hard because we don’t know what Saturdays are going to be like. Hard because we won’t hear “Jer-ry, Jer-ry, Jer-ry” as we leave the field.
