Jerry attended school in Eolia and was one of the last classes to graduate from Eolia High School. During his high school years he was well-known throughout the area for his excellent basketball skills. As a young man he served in the United States Army Reserves and enjoyed playing baseball on local teams.

Jerry learned the skill of carpentry at a young age from his good friend and surrogate uncle, Minor Lewis. He enjoyed using those skills throughout his lifetime not only as a career, but by making furniture and other items. For many years he was a Union Carpenter and later worked for Hercules, from where he retired in 1997. Jerry belonged to the St. Clement Catholic Church and was a member of the Knights of Columbus.

Jerry was known for his humor and playing jokes on people. His favorite retirement past time was driving the countryside and taking in all the happenings. He will be missed by his family and friends, particularly his “coffee group” at MeMe’s.

Serving as pallbearers will be his nephews Jim McDannold, Roger McDannold, Bruce Scherder, Keith Scherder, Stephen Scherder and Eugene Korte.
