She worked as a secretary for the Heart Foundation for 40 years.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Walden And Lena Alexander; and grandmother, Lucy Brooks. She is survived by her loving husband of 11 years, Lawrence Reynolds; step-children, Travis, Shauna and Natalia; and two grandchildren, Sierra and Dakota.

Jerry, as I knew her in '60s-'70s, was fun to know and work with--Albers Drug Company in Knoxville, TN. I learned more from Jerry pertaining to work. Have missed seeing/talking with her many years due to my health issues. You were fortunate to have her in your family and church. This photo of Jerry--I knew her with coal black hair--she looked marvelous with white hair, too. Prayers for all. -L. Rebecca (Becky) Wynn, Member-Fountain City United Methodist Church, Knoxville, TN.
