Gerald Glen “Jerry” Myers, 82 of Sioux City died Tuesday, December 3, 2019 after a short illness.

Jerry was born on June 18, 1937 in Sioux City, the son of Glen W. and Lucille I. (Stansberry) Myers. He married the love of his life, Barbara Brower on February 20, 1959. They were just about to celebrate their 61st anniversary.

Jerry graduated from Central High School in 1955. He worked at his father’s gas stations in Sioux City, up until he and Barbara started their own business, J & R Construction in 1963 in Sioux City, which he owned and operated for 50 years until he retired in 2012.

Jerry’s first love was always his family. He enjoyed golfing, fishing and sports of all kinds. He had many buddies that he saw regularly. He took his young family on annual summer vacations all over the country, full of fun and fond memories.

In his retirement, he loved collecting sports cards and memorabilia. And he most enjoyed all of life’s celebrations with his family.

Survivors include his wife, Barbara; and six children: Debbie (Geoff) Moran, Kevin Myers, Rhonda (Tim) Moenkedick, Kenny Myers, Melissa Myers, and Amy Myers; 17 grandchildren; 5 great-grandchildren; three sisters: Joyce Lowe, Judy Huygens, and Sally Behning; three brothers: Dennis Myers, Rick Myers, and Arnie Myers; and many nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents; sister, Joann Faegre; brother, Earl Myers; and many dear friends.
