Jerry was born in Clear Lake, Iowa the son of Henry “Hank” and Edna Pals. He was united in marriage to Lois on April 17, 1964 in Canton, South Dakota. To this union was born four children. Jerry was a “Jack of all Trades” and worked on anything mechanical, plumbing, heating, and construction.

He then started working for himself working on peoples, cars, lawn mowers, and anything to keep himself busy. He died while working on his own truck in his man cave. In the early years he loved going with Lois to dances with his family. Each year they would travel to Lake of the Ozarks to go fishing with family. He enjoyed the chance of winning with lottery scratch tickets, but most of all just being with his kids, grandkids and great grandkids. A song for the funeral is “Grandpa Told me So” because he did.
