Jerold Robert Holland
March 31, 1926 - September 18, 2019

Jerold Robert Holland, 93, of Forest City, died on Wednesday, September 18, 2019, at MercyOne Hospice of North Iowa in Mason City.

Jerold was born on March 31, 1926, at home in Winnebago County to Kenneth and Carrie (Skilbred) Holland. He grew up on the family farm and attended school in Buffalo Center, graduating in 1946. On August 26, 1949, he married Winifred Munson, and to their union, three sons were born: John, Tom, and Dean.

A long-time farmer, Jerry loved working and spending time outdoors, taking care of the land. A self-sufficient, self-starting handyman, Jerry could fix anything. In addition, he enjoyed golfing, hunting, fishing, attending sporting events, and playing cards as well as other games. Moreover, he treasured his family, and he enjoyed spending time with them, especially with his grandchildren. Undoubtedly, he will be, dearly, missed by all who knew and loved him.

Jerry is survived by his wife, Winifred, of Forest City; his sons, John (Linda) and Dean (Eileen) Holland, all of Forest City, and Tom (Pat) Holland, of Spirit Lake; his grandchildren: Courtney (Brant) Boekleman and Chris (Kristy), Jackie, James (Monique), Jason (Kendra), Jeff (Alyssa), Nicholas (Megan), and Tony (Mollie) Holland; thirteen great-grandchildren; a sister, Neoma Isebrand, of Estherville, Iowa; and a sister-in-law, Joan Holland; as well as by many nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents; his grandparents; his brothers, Norbert and Randy Holland; a sister, Ina Lester; a brother-in-law, Herman Lester; a sister-in-law, Alice Holland; a brother-in-law, Virgil Isebrand; a great nephew, Sam; and a niece, Pam Stallings.

Memorial services will be held at 1:30 P.M., Saturday, September 21, 2019, at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Forest City with Pastor Rod Hopp officiating. Burial of cremains will follow at a later date. A gathering of friends and family is scheduled for one hour before the services at the church on Saturday. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be directed to Immanuel Lutheran Church.
