I worked with Jerry on many TVA construction projects where he was the foreman. He had a strong work ethic which always benefited his employer and he was able to couple the high expectations with fair and equible treatment of the men and women under him which is a rare talent to find. He and his father, brother, and stepson left a lasting legacy of contributions to the Tennessee Valley Authority. Jerry was someone you would always want on your team and a great friend.

Jerry Loden was one of the finest men I have ever met. He was a good friend and a fellow co-worker. I will miss him.

Jerry was a good man and a very good friend and showed me the ropes and how to be a good leader as he trained me to be.
