Jerry loved spending time at his house on Lake Boon. He also enjoyed gardening, splitting wood, and spending time with family and friends. He will always be remembered for his motto that you wake up every day with a purpose, Jerry was hard working man and took pride in everything he did. Jerry will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Especially to those who had the honor of being in his circle of family/friends. Jerry would never admit to it but if you needed help he would always help you regardless. Jerry's grandsons meant everything to him, he always knew all he had to do was make a call and one of them would be there regardless. Jerry's greatest joy was watching Myla & Kaia running around and playing. Jerry also enjoyed watching his great grandson Jensen who he said had a beautiful smile.
