Jerry was an avid fan of the UNC Tarheels and the Minnesota Vikings. He enjoyed Elon University Baseball games and supporting the Burlington Sock Puppets. Jerry was a Civil War Historian taking several trips to Gettysburg Battlefield where he spent many happy hours enjoying the view from Little Round Top. He enjoyed eating out in local restaurants, especially meeting friends at Boston Sandwich Shop. Jerry was fond of all genres of music.
