His was a life well lived - he loved his family and found his purpose in rescuing animals. He worked hard, supporting his family as a career APS lineman, and enjoyed a long retirement. Jerry loved his wife, Jean Janosik, and though she left him too soon, he carried on and shared his love with the cats and dogs he rescued, loved, and provided for in his retirement. In the last few years, Jerry made sure that his legacy of taking care of all animals would carry on. In his last days, Jerry looked forward to and found comfort in beautiful Arizona sunsets. He passed peacefully, and headed to see all his loved ones and beloved pets who were waiting to see him again.
