Jerry and his family moved to Kamloops in 1978. He spent 32 years working for the CNR before retiring due to illness in 2007. Jerry spent many years cowboying at the Corbould Ranch, fulfilling his boyhood dreams. He was happiest riding his horses in the back country, skiing at Tod Mountain, and hunting with his buddy Ross. He called himself “the original bush ape.” Jerry always kept his sense of humour, had great faith in God and always had a positive attitude. He was a great example of patience and faith to us all. He loved his God and his family and friends – always there with encouragement and a listening ear. A special thanks to our church family, staff at the Cancer Clinic, the “angels” at Hospice House, Harry and Sharon Funk, Vic and Caroline Anderson and all our prayer warriors.
