JERRY CALHOUN Obituary

JERRY WAYNE CALHOUN Jerry Wayne "Weatherman" Calhoun was born January 24, 1948, in Bonham, Texas. Jerry lived a life full of adventure. He was an avid outdoorsman, drove over a million miles as a truck driver, and became a professional piddler when it was time to retire. He married the love of his life, Debbie Calhoun, on October 10th, 1992, at the Lighthouse Resort and Marina on Lake Texoma, and inherited two hard-headed stepchildren. He is survived by his children, son Randy Acklin and wife Kristen and their children, Raley and Alexandra of Plano, and daughter Crystal White and husband, Philip White of Plano and more friends and cousins than you could shake a family tree at. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to ARFhouse! in Sherman, or to Fannin County Emergency Management. And we encourage all of you to spend time piddling around this afternoon in Jerry's memory. Graveside services will be held at 10:00 AM on Wednesday, August 23, 2023 at the West Hill Cemetery in Sherman, Texas. Arrangements are under the direction of Waldo Funeral Home in Sherman. You may sign the online register book at waldofuneralhome.com.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Calhoun as we all called him will be very missed. As a neighbor I don´t know how long it will be before I stop looking over to see if he is there. He will totally leave a hole in "the bottom".
