JEROME FERRO Obituary

On April 4, 2014, Jerome Ferro went to be with his wife in heaven. Jerome, age 85, grew up in the Old Northeast neighborhood in Kansas City, Mo., and attended De La Salle High School. He worked for Katz Drug Stores and went on to Ford Motor Co., which he retired from in 1980. He was proud of his years spent leading young boys in Indian Guides and in Boy Scout Troop 125. He also loved gardening, eating good food and collecting decanters. Jerome was preceded in death by his loving wife, Virginia Ferro, his parents Salvatore Ferro and Jennie Ferro Lipari, and his sister Rose Ann Sivigliano. He is survived by his children Sam Ferro and wife Lisa, Toni Ferro-Arthur and husband Roger, and Jerry Ferro Jr. and wife Michelle. He also leaves his grandkids, Alexandra, Kaley and Cole McLain; Antonio, Courtney and Brooke Ferro; sister, Marie Lombardo and husband Marion, brother Jim Ferro and wife Mary Jane; brother-in-law, Vince Anzalone and wife Anna, and many nieces, nephews and friends.

Dear Toni. As your Mass of Christian Burial gets under way, I am here in my church (in Clay Center) praying for peace and comfort for you and all your family, with the assurance that life is changed, not ended. May Jerry and Virginia, and all the departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace and rise in glory. Lavonne+

Sam, Toni and Jerry Joe,
I have known your Dad(and Mom) since I was 12 years old. They always treated me as family; like a little sister and doted on me. I suspect your Dad is now very happy to be with his beloved Virginia.
"May the Lord bless and keep him,
May He make His face to shine upon him and give him rest."
Love and prayers,
Frances(Lipari)Guastello

I recall fond memories of visiting Jerry and his parents. His dad was a good person (and will continue to be). He's leaving behind a world that will miss him, but going to a place that will welcome him in multiple capacities.
