He proudly served his country as a veteran of the Army National Guard. He served for 6 years.

Jerry was also deeply involved in his community, serving on the Board of Directors of the Historical Society for many years.

One of the greatest blessings of Jerry’s life was his marriage to his beloved wife, Phyllis. Together, they shared 54 years of marriage, building a life filled with memories, love, and companionship. Their years together stand as a testament to a lasting commitment and a lifetime of shared experiences.
