Jerry enjoyed working on old cars, restoring old tractors, woodworking and carving, and loved being in the outdoors and spending time in nature. He shared many of these interests and hobbies with his grandson, Bill. Jerry worked for the City of Oshkosh Street Department for 30 years. He also enjoyed spending time with friends and family and made fast friends with the neighbors, especially longtime friend, Steve Folske.
He is survived by the love of his life for 47 years, Alice Winkel; children, Laura Scherr, Linda (Jerry) Tritt, Cindy Scherr and Bonnie Wojahn; Alice's children, Joe Winkel and Sheila (Michael) Pulice; and many other friends and family.

The family would like to extend special thanks to Moments Hospice for the help and care they provided these last weeks at home and Madison Tank for all of her help and support.
