Born to Joe and Ella May, alongside his older sister, Linda. He proudly served his country as a Vietnam veteran, later devoting his life to being a loving father, grandfather, great-grandfather, uncle, and friend.
On October 17, 1970, he married the love of his life, Cissy Pendino. Their marriage of nearly 55 years was filled with devotion and care, with Jerry always looking after her—whether that meant pumping gas, opening doors, or making her dinner.
He is survived by his wife, Cissy; his children Joe (Heather), Geri (Vincent), Frank, and Sherry; his grandchildren Gerica, Savannah, Gelisa, Alexandria, Alyssa, Isabella, Jacob, Francesca, Gennavive, Dominic, and Geno; and his great-grandchildren Cooper, Gryffin, Ripley, Navia, Cannon, and AJ.
He will be remembered for his devotion to family, and the meals and memories he always shared with love.
A visitation will be held in Jerry's honor on Sunday, September 7th, 2025 beginning at 1:00 PM, followed by a service at 2:00 PM at Alexander White Mullen Funeral Home, 11101 St. Charles Rock Rd, St. Ann, MO 63074.
