Author: Michael Sandlin Updated: 10:32 PM EDT July 10, 2021 FINDLAY, Ohio — A flood of pleasant memories filled a hall in Coldren Crates Funeral Home in downtown Findlay on Saturday morning, as some 80 friends and well-wishers recalled the life of Fredrick "Jerry" Vossler, a veteran who passed away last December from congestive heart failure. Describing the service, Casey Heilman, one of Vossler's close friends, said it was, "touching…I think touching is the right word. It's part of the reason I was tearing up so much to see support like that."
