He was a custodian at East Elementary for a number of years. He enjoyed the outdoors especially when he was able to go fishing with friends and family. Jerry was an outgoing person who enjoyed life. Losing someone we love is not easy but knowing that we were blessed to be a part of his life makes us forever thankful. Jerry is survived by his sons, Joey L.D. Weaver & Michaelian “Mike” Brown and 1 grandson; his siblings, Joanna M. Taylor, Janet (Ronald) Shreve, Betty Dunn, Mary Weaver, Oliver “Buddie” Weaver and Robert (Kathy) Weaver in addition to numerous nieces and nephews of several generations.

A Celebration of Life service will be held at 6:00 PM, Tuesday, March 22, 2016 in the VERNON FUNERAL HOME, Urbana with Pastor Oscar Bowling and Pastor Ronald Shreve officiating. The family will receive friends from 5-6 PM prior to the service. Condolences to the family may be expressed at www.vernonfh.com

Jerry was my friend, sitting next to me in Mr. Berlin's drafting class. Jerry was also in my phys-ed classes where he would run the 50 yard dash bare footed in his street clothes and beat everyone in the class even though he was also the biggest kid in the class. He had a natural artistic gift as well.
