Jerome Michael "Jerry" Kasulaitis

Jerome "Jerry" Michael Kasulaitis, 84, passed away on 5 December 2025

(3:30am) at home surrounded by his family. He was the husband of Mary

Kasulaitis. They shared 60 years of marriage together.

Born in Washington, D.C., he was the son of Albin and Mary Kasulaitis. His

journey of education saw him graduate from St. John's College High School

in Washington, D.C., graduate from Northern Virginia Community College,

and attend George Mason University with his US Naval Service and IBEW

Local #26 Apprentice Program completed along the way. He served in the

US Naval Reserve from 1963 to 1971 as an Aviation Antisubmarine Warfare

(ASW) Technician, Second Class (AX2), in Patrol Squadron VP-662. As a

crew member, his hard work and dedication earned every award available

to Patrol Units, including the U.S. Atlantic Fleet Reserve ASW Readiness

Excellence Award and Noel Davis Trophy for being the most efficient VP

Squadron in the Naval Air Reserve Command for five consecutive years

(FY64 to FY68) … a feat never before duplicated at the command. After his

Honorable Discharge from the US Naval Reserve, he completed the IBEW

Local #26 Apprentice Program and became licensed as a Master Electrician

in the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Virginia, and the State of

Maryland. His knowledge and skills as a Master Electrician touched many

lives in some form or fashion through his work at St. Leo's School/Church,

The National Gallery of Art, numerous other businesses and homes in D.C.,

Virginia, and Maryland, and as a Teacher to Apprentices wanting to make a

career as an Electrician just as he did.

He was a member of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers

(IBEW) Local #26 and the Knights of Columbus. He enjoyed coaching all of

his children's soccer teams; watching his children, grandchildren, and great

grandchildren grow and flourish in whatever they decided they wanted to

do in life. He will always be remembered for instilling hard work and

dedication in his children and those he taught as electrical students; his

love of fishing; his humor; dedication to his family; his kindness; his loving

and caring demeanor; and his love of The Father, Son, Holy Spirit, and the

Blessed Mother.

He is survived by his wife, Mary Kasulaitis; his children, Theresa, Michael,

Stephen (Cathy), Elizabeth, and Christopher; his grandchildren, Christopher

(Michael), Cassie, Raymond (Gladys), Michael Jr. (Aubrey), Morgan (Wayne),

Alec, Alaina, Grace, and Lukas; his great grandchildren, Aubrey, Oliver,

Joaquin, Aurora, and Jerome; and his brothers, Albin Jr. and Bernard. He

was predeceased by his parents, Albin and Mary Kasulaitis; his sister, Alma;

and his brothers, William and Donald.
