His kind and gentle spirit touched the lives of many. He left us way too soon.
He was born in Portland, and moved to the Seattle area as a teenager. He attended Gonzaga University and then settled in Portland with his wife Tricia. Jerry spent his career working in the sporting goods/supply chain industry.
He enjoyed watching sports, biking, having a beer, and time with family and friends.
Jerry is survived by his wife, Tricia, daughter, Erin, and son, Rick, along with brothers, John and Joe, sister, Elaine, and a large extended Sullivan and Baker family. Erin is engaged to the newest Sullivan, Mike Lombardi, and Rick is to graduate from Santa Clara University this year.
Funeral will be held on Friday, Jan. 30, 11 am at The Madeleine Catholic Church.
The family would appreciate honoring Jerry through donations to Providence Portland Medical Foundation/My Little Waiting Room. Raise a toast: life is too short to drink bad beer.
