Graveside Services for Mr. Jerry G. Martin, 68, of West Monroe, LA, will be held at 2:00 P.M., Wednesday, December 23, 2020, at Roselawn Memorial Gardens Cemetery in Calhoun, LA, with Bro. Clyde Walker officiating under the direction of Mulhearn Funeral Home, West Monroe, LA.
Mr. Martin was born March 6, 1952 and passed away December 21, 2020. He was a member of Brownville Assembly of God Church, West Monroe No. 419 F. & A.M. Masonic Lodge, Scottish Rite 32 Degree Master Mason, a Shriner at Barak Temple, and the Plumbers and Steamfitters Local Union 141. Jerry was retired from Graphic Packaging, where he worked in maintenance.
Jerry was an avid hunter and outdoorsman. He enjoyed being outside and could be seen on his riding lawnmower or blowing leaves. What he treasured most was his family. While he was proud of his boys, his granddaughters had his heart. No day was complete without a call to his twin brother.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Vernon and Lenora Martin.
Survivors include his wife of 46 years, Joleen Lenard Martin; sons, Jeremy and wife Lauren, and Justin and wife Brittany; twin brother, Gary and partner Jo; grandchildren, Jordan and Joie; a host of brothers and sisters-in-law and nieces and nephews; and also, many friends.
Pallbearers will be Dwight Crockett, Randy Barnes, Casey Martin, Joe Phillips, Gary Smith, and Paul Winnon. Honorary Pallbearers will be Shannon Murphy and Toby Danna.
The family would like to thank family and friends who have called, text, come by and loved us through countless acts of service.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, The Centric B.C. Foundation, or to Shriners Hospitals for Children.
