Gerard (Jerry) Joseph Cline

Gerard (Jerry) Joseph Cline, a beloved soul whose presence brought laughter and warmth to all who knew him, passed away peacefully after suffering from dementia, at his home in Orlando on February 1, 2026, at the age of 59. Born on March 14, 1966, in Pittsburgh (Hazelwood), PA, Jerry was a beacon of joy, embodying the traits of a loving, funny, and welcoming individual who touched the hearts of many.

Jerry's life was enriched by the love and companionship of his family. He is survived by his cherished brothers, Paul Jr., Mike Sr., and Tom Sr. along with their devoted wives, Lori, Keelie, Pam and brother in law Michael Perrucci who loved him as a brother.  His family was further blessed by the laughter and joy brought by his nieces—Mallory, Justine, Lauren, Nicole, Theresa, Laurin, Brianna—and his nephews John Paul, Michael Jr., Harold Jr., TD and Marco. The joy of being an uncle extended beyond mere titles; he was a source of inspiration to them all. Jerry delighted in the presence of his great-nieces and great-nephews, Harper, Nora, and Ava, and echoed the laughter he so often shared.

He was predeceased by his loving parents, Paul Sr. and Jane Cline, whose values of kindness and togetherness shaped the foundation of Jerry's life. He also mourned the loss of his beloved sister Barbara and brother Harold Sr., along with sister-in-law Irene and niece Karlie, whose memories he carried with him always.

As friends and family gather to honor Jerry’s life, they will find comfort in the memories of his generous spirit and the affectionate moments they shared together. A viewing will be held on Tuesday, February 10, 2026, from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM at Carey Hand Colonial Funeral Home, allowing those who loved him to come together in remembrance. A Funeral Mass will take place on Wednesday, February 11, 2026, at 11:30 AM at Good Shepherd Catholic Church; internment after will be at Queen of Angels Cemetery.
