We are greatly sorry for your loss. It has been such a pleasure having Jerry as one of the missionaries FBCES has partnered with. We shall also celebrate in the realization that he is with Our Lord.

Thanks for the visits. The coffee was always enjoyed and appreciated. The toast tongs work great. But most of all - thank you for your friendship and work to further the gospel.

Jerry and Sue brought much fun to life in Ukarumpa with their gifts of hospitality and zest for celebrating special occasions. The time Jerry played the role of Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof was so entertaining (and with Sue as Golde was perfect)! We also admired the way Jerry was willing to serve on EC and was the chair I think for several years.
We treasure the short times together during furlough, and Sue, please come any time!

He loved to worship the LORD, to preach the good news of JESUS, to quote the Sermon on the Mount during the Meeting House church services with the Ukarumpa international missionaries, he loved to sing, he loved to worship the LORD on the piano at home, in Ukarumpa, in any place where there was a piano, he loved to lead in worship to the LORD. He loved family and friends gathering for fellowship and food at his home near us in Ukarumpa. I cannot think of Jerry without Sue or Sue without Jerry. They were always together.

Jerry was always a generous, helpful friend, who gave so much to others, and really gave the meaning to working as a team. Although our times on EC never overlapped, I was grateful for his work on the documents which helped us as we later continued with them. I also appreciated his confidence that I could be an asset to the Branch through the Constitution Committee and later EC. Getting to know him through the Bible study group was a privilege.
Sue, we treasure you as a friend as well, and hope to cross paths again as we are in our season of remote assignment. Be assured of our prayers for you and the rest of the family. I will always remember how Jerry looked nonplussed at a concert one conference year, when you dedicated the piece you were playing together to him!

I will never forget when Mr. Jerry Pfaff spoke during my children’s church service at Countryside Fellowship Church about how there are two things that last beyond this life - people’s souls and God’s Word. That made such an impression on me in my youth and what to focus on in life. I saw your family several times at the church I grew up in and at Greenwood Hills girls camp and always enjoyed the times you all were around as you brought joy and laughter with you and the most interesting stories about your ministry. My deepest condolences and prayers to you all, I know Mr. Pfaff has entered Heaven with a warm “well done good and faithful servant!”

I knew Jerry from our wonderful days at UNC, especially with our involvement with Campus Crusade for Christ. I was blessed to know both Jerry and his sister, Terry, also at UNC. The Pfaff’s are a great testimony to God’s love and grace, and how He blesses those who serve Him. Although this family will certainly grieve for their loss, I know they also rejoice in knowing Jerry is with his amazing Lord & Savior Jesus Christ! Those of us who know the Lord will be together again!!

My heart goes out to the entire family, especially to Sue. As a widow myself, I know the depth of grief and bewilderment as how to face the years ahead that one can experience. I know that Jerry's love for you will continue to strengthen you and encourage you to live well and fully. Much love, hugs and prayers from Sue Andersen
