Gerald H. Raynor

Jerry Raynor, 74, of Croydon, PA, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, January 16, 2026, at Lower Bucks Hospital. His sudden passing has left a deep void in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.

Born in Philadelphia, PA, on May 15, 1951, Jerry was the beloved son of the late John Raynor and Mary (Dobbins) Raynor.

Jerry retired after working many years at Sears in Philadelphia and later at Tastykake. He will be remembered for his strong work ethic, his generous heart, and the genuine joy he found in people. His presence will be deeply missed, but his spirit lives on in the countless lives he touched.

Above all, Jerry was a devoted husband, loving father, and proud grandfather. He is survived by his wife, Christine Raynor; his son, Gerald Raynor; his daughter, Michele Tralies; and his two adoring grandchildren, Mia Tralies and Cole Tralies, who brought him endless joy. He is also survived by his sister, Claire; his sisters-in-law Kathy, Jeanette and Joan; and many cherished nieces and nephews.

Jerry was preceded in death by his brothers, John (Jack), Edward (Eddie), Thomas (Tommy), Ronald, and Michael; his sister-in-law Kathy; and his brother-in-law Al.
