Charles “Jerry” Shaw, Jr. passed away peacefully on May 11, 2025, at the age of 80. Born in Orlando, Florida to Charles Shaw Sr. and Marion Bonnett Shaw, the family moved to Montgomery, Alabama where Jerry grew up and attended elementary through high school. He earned a Bachelor of Sciences and a Master’s degree in Finance from the University of Alabama - Roll Tide! His distinguished career in banking began at First Union in Charlotte, North Carolina, where he served as an investment banker. His career led Jerry and his family to New Orleans where he served in several senior and executive level roles, including President, at Hibernia National Bank. Over the years, Jerry was a member of the Bienville Club, Metairie Country Club, New Orleans Country Club, and The Rex Organization and served on the boards of the United Way and New Orleans Ear, Nose and Throat Hospital.

He cherished his many years of duck hunting and fishing with his close friends and especially enjoyed weekly golf games and breakfast gatherings at the club. A European and American history buff, Jerry loved family vacations to the 30A beaches along the Florida panhandle, cheering on the Crimson Tide, gardening, and attending his granddaughter’s sporting events. “Bobo” as he was called by his granddaughter, rarely missed a game or match.

Jerry is survived by his beloved wife of 49 years, Anne Glenn Shaw; his daughter, Amy Shaw Feirn (Clark Knapp), and his granddaughter, Elizabeth “Betsy” Feirn, whom he adored. A visitation will be held on Saturday, May 17th from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at the home of his daughter Amy, at 307 Atherton Drive in Metairie, Louisiana.
