With the passing of Jerry, physical therapy has lost one of it's pioneers and role models. I am pleased to say Jerry was both to me as well as a friend. My sincere sympathy to the family.

Cathie, Joe and Grady are so sorry for your loss. Retta Rose, we always enjoyed talking with you both when you walked the community. I saw you last at the Veteran's Home and we always knew your support and love for Jerry was strong. You have both been through a long battle and he stands beside you always as you did him. May you find peace. The Nagy's, of Pine Drive.
Dear Retta Rose, my thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Jerry was a sweet man and he was so kind to me (as you are). I'm sorry for your loss. Linda Stigile
Retta Rose,
So sorry to hear of Jerry's passing. Elly and I will always remember him as a very caring and upbeat person, and it was always wonderful to be in his company. We remember the times you and he supported Mema when she was going through difficult times. We all felt better with you and Jerry there to joke and support our family.
May God bless Jerry's entire family and Jerry on his journey home! He will certainly be missed. I met Jerry in 1981 as a new RN at Beebe. I had the pleasure to work with Jerry through the years and always learned a lot from him. He was a kind gifted Therapist and a true gentleman.

Jerry was my husband's physical therapist & one of our neighbors. You could not meet a man nicer than Jerry.
My sympathy to Retta Rose and Jerry's family. 🌄
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Jerry he was a great man ! I had him as a physical therapist for many years starting in 1985. He helped me so much after a spinal cord injury and I will never forget him. He always had a joke or two and kept the spirits up of whoever he was working with. We also shared a recipe or two. Just wanted the family to no he is in my thoughts and prayers. God bless !
Dear Retta Rose & Family:
We were very sorry to hear of your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Sincerely, Dolores and Danny Wilson
Jerry and I met after my Head injury, I was 9 years old and he was the one for several years who worked with me tirelessly so that I could walk again and coordinate all my limbs and body movements. Without Jerry I know there would be a lot less people walking and being independent on this world. He had a kind and gentle manner and he made something that was so difficult, fun. He was stern only when he thought you were giving up on yourself he never gave up on anyone in that Physical Therapy Room at Beebe Hospital and he refused to let others give up a on themselves. He was a mentor in my life, one of only a few respected individuals that drove me to help people that have disabilities and I've spent my career doing just that. Thank God for Jerry Frampton. Oh, he will be so missed by so many. I'm sure he's now one of God's most dedicated and kind Angels. Rest in Peace my dear friend. My prayers and love go out to his family.
Love, Amy
