Gerald "Jerry" Andrew ("Jerry") Jorgensen1

M, #2918, b. 12 September 1935, d. 23 July 2006

Parents

  • Name Jerry Jorgensen
  • Obituary
    Wakonda, Clay, South Dakota, United States
    His obituary was published in Wakonda, Clay, South Dakota, United States. Gerald Andrew Jorgensen, 71, entered into his heavenly home on July 23, 2006, while resting peacefully at the Wakonda Heritage Manor Nursing Home. He was surrounded by a visiting pastor and family members and friends.

    "Jerry" was born Sept. 12, 1934 in Turner County, near Viborg. He was the youngest and seventh child of Frances Sweeley Jorgensen and Andrew Jorgensen. Early childhood days were spent in a caring lifestyle with five brothers and one sister enjoying their baby brother. Jerry was blessed with abundant red silky curls and big brown eyes.

    The Jorgensen family moved to Yankton County in the late 1930s. There Jerry entered first grade at Roosevelt School District #57. Later they purchased a farm near Gavins Point Dam west of Yankton. Jerry and three of his brothers attended Hill View School and graduated from there.

    Horseback riding was his favorite past time. This was the beginning of his love for horses, western clothing and music. He enjoyed romping with the family dogs, herding livestock and listening to country western music.

    He joined the U.S. Army in 1960, stationed at Fort Hood, TX. His service time was spent working with missiles in New Mexico. He was honorably discharged in 1963.

    Following his discharge, he worked at Lincoln, NE, and Sioux City, IA. During his lifetime, he was a dependable and dedicated worker.

    Employed in the Yankton area most of his working years, he held positions at Gurney Seed and Nursery Co. He also worked at the Cimpl Packing Co., for several years. He retired from the Dietary Department at the Human Services Center in 1997 after many years of employment.

    A devoted member of the First United Methodist Church of Yankton, he participated in several activities. He spent many hours in the church yards, developing and maintaining flower beds and shrubs. He enjoyed helping with kitchen and dining room duties, and always was present for fund-raising functions. He will be greatly missed by his church friends.

    He is survived by a multitude of nieces and nephews; four brothers, Mark, of Crescent City, FL, Warren (Mary) of Burbank, Ronald (Mary) of Flandreau, and Lowell of Burbank; and his sister, Elizabeth of Mesa, AZ. His parents and a brother, Dale, preceded him in death.

    Funeral services are 11 a.m. Saturday, July 29 at the United Methodist Church in Yankton, with burial in Union Cemetery, Wakonda. Visitation is one hour prior to services at the church on Saturday. Iverson-Siecke Funeral Home, Vermillion, is in charge of arrangements.
