Jerry was outgoing, loved to talk with people and make jokes. He loved animals, Elvis, Diet Coke, shopping and especially loved watching the Titans, Preds and the Memphis Grizzlies games on TV with his wife Betty. He liked helping people and could be generous to a fault. He was always appreciative and never failed to thank anyone for a kind deed done to him.
The three things of upmost importance to him were his faith, family and country. He was a member of Rutherford County Baptist Church, where he served in various capacities.
