Jerome A. Kraus

Jerome (Jerry) Arthur Kraus, 92, passed away peacefully on Sunday, March 8, 2026. He was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Barbara Kay, the love of his life.

A devoted family man, Jerry's greatest joy in life was the time he spent with those he loved. He took immense pride in his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, and nothing meant more to him than being surrounded by family.

Jerry will be lovingly remembered by his children, Iris (Michael), Marla, and Brian (Tamara); his grandchildren, Justin (Carolina), Courtney, Michelle (Jesse), Jacob, Zachary, Ethan, and Blake; his great-grandchildren, Sadie, Aidan, Christopher, Naomie, and Harley; his devoted caregivers, Doreen, Ena, Carlene, and Roxanne; as well as many extended family members and dear friends whose lives he touched.

Jerry proudly served his country in the U.S. Army during the Korean War.

He retired in 2002 as Chief Engineer for Symons Corporation after 45 years of dedication and service, leaving behind a legacy of hard work, integrity, and commitment.

Jerry will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him. His kindness, steady presence, and devotion to his family will remain in the hearts of those he leaves behind. Though he is gone, the memories he created and the love he shared will continue to live on through the generations of his family.
