Graduating with a Bachelors (1975) and a Masters in Accounting (1976) from the University of Kansas, he was a CPA, working in the Auditing and Tax fields. Jerry had a great sense of humor and a love for fun; unending stories of mischievous times growing up were enjoyed frequently. He could be equally happy traveling the world or just hanging out with his backyard grill. He did not know a stranger, was kind and friendly to everyone, always saw the best in people, and his faith was strong.  His deep love for his family was shown every day.  A life well lived Jerry. God bless you, we love you.
