Jerry Haney Obituary

Jerry Leo Haney Jr., 35, passed away at his home on Friday, Aug. 31, 2007. Jerry attended St. Gerard and Tara High School, where he was a star football player. His younger brother, Paul, never missed a game, and admired his older brother's dedication to the game. Paul envied his brother's ability to play sports and always wished that he were a player, too. Jerry was a very intelligent man who loved to read and was a very deep person. He was intrigued by all of the mysteries of the world, which set him apart from many people. In his early years, both his little brothers, K.J. and Paul, admired his ability to exude confidence in every walk of his life. His loving sisters, Beth Ann and Deborah, were always there to take care of him when needed. Beth Ann and Jerry were best friends. She was always there for him no matter what he did; they have a bond that will never be broken. His dear mother loved him so much it hurt. He had many other family members and friends who also loved him beyond words. Jerry loved animals, especially his beautiful dog, Addie. They shared a very special bond. Jerry considered his love of animals as the only kind of true love, unconditional. His love for animals exceeded just dogs, as he had been seen napping with baby raccoons, and never missed a chance to the best of his ability to care for any orphaned animal. Jerry also shared a special love with his fiancée, Nikki. She stood by his side faithfully through thick and thin. Jerry loved her very much, although he was only capable of showing love the way that only Jerry could. After reading one of many books, he once quoted Julie de L'Espinasse, in saying, regarding Nikki, "I love you as one should, to excess. With folly, delight, and despair… But, my friend, I do something better than to love. I know how to suffer." His disease is not one that not only affected Jerry, but also affected all of those who desperately tried to save him. Jerry did not have a desire to die, but a desire to stop the emotional pain. For all of us who deeply knew him, he will be truly missed. Jerry is lost no more. Visitation at Seale Funeral Home, Denham Springs, was on Sunday, Sept. 2, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. He is survived by his mother, Pauline Sublett Albarado, and husband, Roger J.; sisters and brothers-in-law, Beth Watson Boudreaux and Duane, Deborah Haney Freeman and Jerry; brothers and sisters-in-law, Paul Sublett Haney and Sarah Leigh, K.J. Haney and Jonnel; stepbrother, Tony Albarado and wife Annett; stepsister, Angela Lee and Kendall; fiancée, Nikki Griffin and children, Shana and Shawn; nieces and nephews, Kyle and Jacob Watson, Joe and Sarah Freeman and Cade, Cameron, Caleb, McKenna and Burke Haney; and his pit bull, Addie. He was preceded in death by his father, Jerry Leo Haney Sr.; maternal grandparents, James E. and Lorraine Sublett; and paternal grandparents, Walter and Artie Mae Haney. The honorary pallbearers are Randy Haney, Brian Brewer, Steven and Timmy Haney and John Hensley.

I don't know that I had ever met Jerry, I met alot of Jeff's kin. My prayers are with the family in their time of grief. I pray that the Lord will comfort you during this time, blessing you with great memories, and tears of the happiness he brought into your lives.

My Little Brother Jerry Jr,

Well what I can say about Jerry Jr. He was a wonderful uncle to Joe & Sarah who loved him dearly along with many nieces and nephews who will miss him very much. He was also a beloved brother to Beth, Deb, Paul & K.J. who loved him more then he ever knew. His fiancé Nikki will miss him the most. He was her rock the one she looked for when times got tough. I am thankful to have had the opportunity to have him in my life for 35 years. Life was always good when Jerry was around. He loved to B.S all the time. His presence will be missed daily but mostly at family gatherings. I may not have seen or talked to him everyday. I knew without a doubt he loved us all and if we had a family gathering for a birthday or holiday etc, Jerry Jr., would be there to see and be with all of us. These are the times when I will miss him the most. Finally, No Mother should ever have to bury a child. Our pain is deep and will live forever in us.

Much Love and Respect,
Love ya Always & Forever,

Deborah

I am deeply sorrowed by the loss of my cousin Jerry. Out of all the many times i've seen my cousin, I think every single one of them is of a cheerful memory. Amazing! Jerry was always inspirational to his younger cousins. I am grateful for and will cherish those memories. The photos of Jerry and his ever present smile helps sustain us. My heart and prayers go out to Family and Friends.

To the Haney Family:

For those of you who don't know who I am, I am Niki's middle sister. First of all, I would like to send my condolences to all of you. Jerry was always a very friendly person to me. I got along with him great. He would do anything for me. We had some fun times together all hanging out. He was kind-hearted, fun, silly, and you never knew what he would do at any moment to embarass you, but that's what we loved about him. I'll never forget the very first time I met him. Niki brought him to my house to meet us and before the night was over, he was taking his teeth out. That's Jerry. Anyway, I just wanted to let you all know I was thinking of you and I will miss him, too.

No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love Him.

I Corinthians 2:9

The journey into God's presence requires a departure, and that brings sorrow for those who remain. But what joy to think of your loved one's arrival into the very arms of a loving Heavenly Father.

With caring thoughts of sympathy,


Mr. & Mrs. Grover Hall and Family

Also, we thank you so very much for sharing the beautiful pictures. With christian love we will always remain.

Well Jerry I guess you know by know the Saints lost their opening game last night. I sat here and watched the game listening for you to holler at them to catch the ball. Jerry I did not know that you had some many people that loved you and it showed. I have met some really good friends of yours. Things will be alot different around here as from day to day and from holiday to holiday. You rest well, no pain, no more shame, just peace finally. We all love you and we will all miss you.

Thanks for all the laugh and good times we shared. Thanks for all the help when I needed, you were always a holler away or phone call. You were always there we when needed you.

Sorry we could not be there when you needed us the most.

Love ya, Miss ya, Always,

Deborah has been my best friend and "sister" for the last 19 years and Mrs Pauline has been my "2nd mom". When we first became friends and then were roommates for awhile, her brothers were usually around, like my 3 "pesky" brothers. Jerry was always full of smiles and mischief, but he would make you laugh, no matter what he had done. Through the years, Paul has been the only one that I get to see very often, unless it was at birthday parties when I would get to see K.J., Beth and Jerry, but I felt like all of you are family, because of Deborah. Paul has even made an impression on my kids because when they learned that one of Aunt Debra's brothers had died, they said "It's not Paul is it???" Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. My door is always open and I am only a phone call away. God will embrace and love you and give you the peace that you need and that only He can give, you only have to ask.

We love each and every one of you and will lift you up in prayer each and every day.

All our love,

Eric and Rhonda Touchstone and family

My family is so sad and broken, but we know it will take time, our memories are so very strong. We still hear that loud, abrasive but yet very enjoyable and lovable voice coming through the front door and saying "what chall doin" and my boys running and jumping on uncle Jerry and taking his hat and rough housing until the house is filled with laughter.
We will miss all of the crazy times spent with Jerry, but we will never forget the hugh heart and smile he left in our lives. He touched everyone with his personality and unique individual characteristics.
He will be missed and never forgotten.

For those of you that do know me, you know how much my brothers and sisters mean to me. Today is the official kick off of the football season, his beloved Saints are playing the colts. I keep looking for him to walk in my backdoor anytime now and holler "whats for supper"? Or saying " are you ready for some football!!!! Or doing that silly dance he liked to do Monkey on a stick or the Tootsie Roll!!! Jerry had a great love for life most of the time!!! He will be truly missed as he was loved by so many, but he could not love himself enough to fight for himself. But he is lost no more!!! No more pain, no more sadness, no more feeling bad about himself, Just gone!!! He does not realize what a big whole he has left in my heart but in all our hearts!!!! I am glad he is at peace finally but I will miss him terribly!!! I miss his laugh, his smile, I miss talking to him. Jerry was a very special person, I wish everyone could have known him the way we did. We have a bond that will never been broken. I will see you again!!!

I love you Jerry and I always will.

Say Hi to Daddy!!!!
Go Saints!!!!!

Pauline,
I just heard your tragic news. The girls at work just contacted me since I'm on vacation this week. Please know how very sorry I am for your loss. Even though I never had the pleasure of meeting your son I know he was a remarkable young man by reading his obituary and the entries in this guest book. I will keep you and your entire family in my prayers.
Heaven has been blessed with an angel named Jerry.

Junior was bigger than life, he lived hard, he loved harder, but most of all he played the hardest. He was always my biggest idol as we journeyed this world together. He feared nothing but himself and he was right to. My older brother lived life like there was no tomorrow, although he had guilt for doing the things he did,he lived with no regrets. I loved him so very much and a piece of my heart died with him that day .I pray that his death will serve a greater purpose. I will miss him everyday from here on out, I know in my heart of hearts that I will see my older brother again. I LOVE YOU! To Momma ,Beth ,Deborah , and K.J ,I LOVE YALL THE SAME!Remember he is (LOST NO MORE)

Jerry was not only my brother in law; he was my friend. Losing him has been extremely devastating and a piece of my heart left with him. I still cannot believe that he is gone, and would love nothing more than to hear him say, "Woogie, woogie, woogie" after hearing me complain of any of my petty problems. His humor and sarcasm were two of his greatest qualities. Anyone who was friends with him will never forget his infectious, obnoxious laugh. I would love to hear it once again. He shared with me his dreams, goals, fears, and doubts. I've seen his tears and am grateful that there will be no more for him to shed. He was not always easy to love, but so many of us loved him in ways that he could never comprehend. When happy, Jerry was one of the most giving people we knew. He was a very grateful person as well, and never felt that he deserved anything given to him. Spiritually, Jerry was solid. He had a relationship with God, but just never felt completely worthy of God's love. He carried much guilt, and ultimately decided to never disappoint any of us again, ironically in the most disappointing act of all. He could never fathom how we could love him no matter how many times he let us down. If only he knew that it was himself that he was robbing of life and not us. Jerry was a very well rounded and knowledgeable man. He could discuss any topic and always had strong opinions about everything. His quick wit could catch anyone off guard, even if he had no idea what he was talking about. That only added to his endearing personality and charm. When he entered a room, he commanded attention just like Paul, and now our son, Burke. Paul and Jerry shared many of the same positive traits, and I am thankful for that. I will always be able to see Jerry in my boys. No one should remember Jerry the way that he left this world, but only for the many laughs and smiles that he gave to so many people. He is greatly missed and each day his memory will grow stronger. He will never be forgotten.

Now that I am gone- weep
But weep for those walking beside you
When you need to put your arms around me, put your arms around anyone, and give them what you need to give me.
I may have not given you much,
But I want to leave you with something
Something better than words or sounds
Look for me in the people I have known or loved
And if you cannot give me away,
At least let me live in your eyes and not on your minds.
You can love me most by letting hands touch hands
By giving away the one thing that I never could
By hugging and comforting those in need, those who are lost, hurting, or afraid of living
Love does not die, people do
So when all that is left of me is love-
GIVE ME AWAY

Love you, Jerry... Sarah Leigh

Pauline and Roger,

Pam and I are deeply sorry for your loss.

I told Pam that Jerry impressed me as the kind of man that meant what he said when he met me for the first time and said that he was glad to meet me.

He had the same "genuine" quality of his mother that is getting rare these days and always seemed to be happy.

I told her that it was obvious that he loved his Mom when he came to visit her in the store.

I wish I had gotten the chance to know him better as I'm sure we would have been good freinds.

You're both in our thoughts and prayers.

Let mus know if there is anything we can do.

Love,

Greg and Pam

Jerry is an angel now looking down upon us asking "What's up?" He will be sadly missed by all of those who knew him. The kids don't quite understand what has happened but want to know who will play football and stuff with them for Thanksgiving and Christmas. They love their Uncle Jerry. This shall make us stronger and realize how precious life and family are. When one hurts we all hurt. May God bless each and every member of our family and let it be known how much we love everyone.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
