Jerry was born in Douglasville, Georgia, on June 18, 1939, to the late William Robert and Myrtle
Lucille Walton Huey. He married his wife of almost 60 years, Carolyn Neave Huey on June 17,
1962.
Jerry served his country in the U.S. Air Force from 1961-1965. He retired from Delta Airlines
after working with them for 35 years. He had a passion for airplanes and everything about
aviation. He also had a love for automobiles, and he attended races at Daytona Beach and
Road Atlanta. He loved camping, and his family cherishes many memories they made camping
in the mountains of Tennessee. His beloved dog, Jasmine, a black lab mix, was a faithful
companion and best friend.
Jerry was quick to strike up a conversation with a stranger and had a good sense of humor. In
recent years, he spent a lot of time watching some of his favorite shows, such as Andy Griffith
and The Gaither Gospel Hour, while he cuddled up with his cat, Boots.
