As a child, Jerry grew up traveling the world with his family while his dad was serving in Army Intelligence. They lived in many places including Libya, Korea, France, Honduras, and several places in the states. After traveling the world, they landed in Calhoun, LA.
Jerry and Tommie began their life together in 1980, and their daughter Stefanie Nicole was born four years later.

Jerry worked for State Farm for 40 years before retiring in 2016. Lately, his greatest joys have been cruising the Caribbean with his wife, Tommie, spending time with his daughter and son-in-law, Brandon, and watching and cheering for Jaxson and Lilly in all their activities.
