Obituary:

CLEVELAND, OH - Jerry John Brentar Jr. entered into eternal rest on Nov.
23, 1999 in Novato, CA.

He was born on May 28, 1956 in Munich, Germany and at the age of three, he
returned to Cleveland with his parents where he completed his elementary
and high school education at St. Gregory the Great Elementary School and
St. Joseph High School.

The family church affiliation is St. Paul Croatian Parish in Cleveland.

In 1980, Jerry graduated from American University in Washington, DC with
honors having majored in International Studies. From 1981 to 1984, he
worked for Senator John Glenn from Ohio as a legislative assistant. He then
returned to Cleveland to pursue studies in journalism at Kent State
University where he received his Master's Degree.

Jerry was a talented creative writer who also had written numerous letters
in support of Croatia's independence. He was reared to be proud of the
Catholic Croatian heritage and was fluent in speaking, reading and writing
in the Croatian language as well as in Russian and German. Jerry's letters
were so informative and well presented that Pat Buchanan used information
from them in his syndicated columns. Also, in recognition of his talent,
Jerry was personally called one day by Mike Wallace of the "60 Minutes"
television program commending him on the letter he had written to him,
saying: "I don't usually do this, but your letter was so well written that
I just had to take the time to call you and commend you on it."

Jerry left Cleveland in 1992 to be with his brother John, a psychologist at
Stamford University, settling in Sunnyvale, CA. For the last two years he
resided with his sister Marry Ann Drazina and her family in Novato, CA. He
worked as a writer for Wine Com in Napa Valley, CA and also wrote a column
as a restaurant critic for the San Francisco Chronicle and the Palo Alto
Daily News. Jerry and his brother John also assisted refugees from Bosnia
in resettling in the Bay area.

Jerry was a member of CFU Lodge 235, CCU Lodge 10 and also the Open Space
Wild Preserve and CQED.

He is survived by his parents Jerome and Dora Brentar; brother John;
sisters Carolyn and husband Boris Music; Mary Ann and husband Tom Drazina
and Dora and husband Marc Bourgault; nieces Mara Drazina, Suzy and Victoria
Music; and nephews Christopher Music; and Ante Drazina.

Funeral services were held on Friday, Nov. 26 at Our Lady of Loretto
Catholic Church with Rev. William McCain officiating. He was laid to rest
at Valley Memorial Cemetery in the mausoleum. A life well lived and may he
be rewarded with Eternal Rest in the Lord.
