He served two years in the army after being drafted during the Vietnam Era. He spent his Engineering career at Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland, retiring in 1999. He spent the last two years of his life in Michigan, being cared for by his oldest daughter, Jennefer.

Jerry enjoyed gardening and loved to cook for his family. He always said a good recipe was never the same cause something was always changed a little. He could fix anything on a car unless it was a foreign car.

He liked watching Nascar races, as well as Purdue basketball, and the Baltimore Orioles games on television. He had quite a sense of humor and his family and friends always got a good laugh with him.
