Wichita, Kansas - Jerry, 75, passed away Sept. 2, 2020. He was born March 11, 1945. He was preceded in death by his parents Oscar and Louise Simon, and siblings, Rosalie Fournier, Jan Molitor, Dick Simon.

A kind, gentle, easy going guy. Forever teasing. He kept us laughing. An avid football fan and history buff. Jerry had a deep compassion for the underdog and oppressed. He gave generously to these causes. He cherished his family and Catholic faith. Truly a deep thinker, quiet spirit and beautiful soul. Jerry lived by Colossians verse 3:23, "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart."

Very fond memories of Jerry being a class ahead of me at Andale High. Played many a football game with Jerry as our hard charging fullback. Always had a smile and a joke for you.
RIP Jerry and let the Perpetual Light shine upon You......
