Jerry worked at the Hamilton Carpet Cleaning Company for some years and enjoyed lending a hand to anyone who needed odd jobs completed.  Jerry loved the Lord and enjoyed talking about his Kentucky family and their influence on his relationship with Jesus.  Jerry had a special relationship with all animals.  He especially loved all his canine companions. He also served in the US Marine Corps. and was honorable discharged.

Grace; niece, Jennifer L. Wilson; nephew, Lloyd R. Wilson (Julie); sister-in-law, Nancy L. Wilson; one daughter, Sheena Wilson and two grandchildren.

Jerry never met a stranger on life's journey and would give anyone the shirt off his back if they needed it.  He was a good man and friend to all who knew him.  He will be deeply missed but he is flying free now.
