Jerry Kristoff, 74, of Eagan, passed away peacefully with family at his side on November 23, 2024.
Jerry was an accountant for more than 40 years in Minneapolis. He loved his family, praying, running, coaching, bird-watching, volunteering, and the Packers. He had a quick wit, warm sense of humor, and he always put others first.
He is survived by wife Laurie of 46 years, children Megan (Yves Bürgin), Mackenzie, John (Elizabeth), and Kathryn (Matt Dickinson), grandchildren Eoin and Fiona Kristoff, and Leo and Mila Dickinson. He is also survived by sisters Cheryll (Dave Dondlinger), Karen (Ben Whicker), Marilyn (Sam Purdy), sister-in-law Pam Kristoff, and many other cousins and extended family members.
He was preceded in death by parents John and Viola and brother Dennis.
A private funeral and Mass of Christian Burial will be held at St. Joseph Church in Rosemount on December 5, 2024.

Jerry was a lifelong friend of our family. So many wonderful memories fill my heart, as nine combined children, growing up together, having adventures in northern Wisconsin, and celebrating life together as adults. My love and prayers to Jerry´s beautiful family.
