Gerald Vernon "Jerry" Curlee, 86, of Denton, Texas, went to be with the Lord on February 28, 2026, in Denton. He was born on December 26, 1939.

Jerry was known for his love of music, his gift for singing, and his generous spirit. He had a kind heart and a giant sense of humor that brought laughter to those around him. He lived his life with warmth, faith, and devotion to his family and friends.

He was preceded in death by his daughter, Stacey Johnston.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Martha Curlee; his son, David Curlee and daughter-in-law, Linda Curlee; his daughter, Kelley Kingslien; son in law, David Johnston; his granddaughters, Taylor Johnston and Becca Curlee; and his grandson, Colton Craig.

Jerry's memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him. His family takes comfort in knowing he is at peace in the presence of the Lord.
