Jerri Ecker Obituary

Jerri Lynn Ecker, 49, entered the Kingdom of Heaven on August 4, 2015.
She was born on December 28, 1965, in Lorain, Ohio.
She leaves behind her son, Matthew Ecker; her stepmother, Evelyn Ecker; her sisters, Marianne (Joe) Greene, Mari Beth (Dusty) Becker, Amy (Rickey) Smith, and Lisa Durkin; and brother, Steve (Rose) Wallace. She also leaves behind many nieces and nephews.
Jerri Lynn was preceded in death by her mother, Amy, in 1967; and her father, Alfred, in 1988.
Jerri Lynn's heart was full of love for her son, her family, and her animals, and spent her time with those, and her best of friends, Mary. Jerri Lynn will be remembered for her loyalty, sense of humor, infectious laugh, and the smile in her eyes.
Donations may be made in Jerri Lynn's memory to the American Cancer Society.
A memorial service is planned at a later date.
