Jerry Lund, "Mr. Magnificent", has moved on to join his beloved wife, Terry. He is survived by their 4 children, Tracy (John), Cyndi (Mike), Tim (Rosie) and Kristy (Louis). He has 5 grandchildren and 5 great grandchildren.
Jerry was a 20 year resident of Las Cruces, and was a Teacher at Unity of Las Cruces. He came here from Kansas City, MO, where he worked and studied at Unity Village. He and Terry were deeply religious and their ministry touched so many.
Before going to Unity, Jerry was a home builder in El Paso. He worked for several companies in the 60s and 70s before forming his own company, Jerry Lund, Builder. He has estimated that in all that time he was involved in building over 1000 homes. Jerry served as President of the Association of Home Builders. He was also a proud Navy veteran of WWII.
Jerry's positive outlook on life was infectious and could bring sunshine into anyone's cloudy day. He always left people with the wish for them to have a "Magnificent week!" He was known to all as, "Mr. Magnificent."
