Jerry Lewis Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Jerry proudly dedicated his career to shaping the minds of students, culminating in his role as the assistant superintendent of Ridley High School. His impact on education extended far beyond the classroom, inspiring countless individuals, both young and old, to excel academically and athletically.
Jerry was the cherished son of the late Richard Lewis and Mary (Burk) McCool. He was also preceded in death by his brother, Francis Lewis.
SURVIVORS: He leaves behind his loving children, Jennifer Owens (Phil) and John Lewis; his devoted sisters, Dorothy Miller and Trudy Quillen; as well as his adored grandchildren, Morgan, Mackenzie, Miranda, Autumn, Chase, and Sarah, and great-grandchildren. Additionally, he is survived by his former wife, Rosemary McNeal.
In honor of Jerry's remarkable life and legacy, a public visitation will take place on Friday, May 30, 2025, from 2:00 PM to 3:15 PM at Nolan-Fidale Funeral Home, located at 5980 Chichester Avenue, Aston, Pennsylvania. A eulogy service will follow at 3:30 PM, providing family and friends an opportunity to celebrate and remember the profound impact Jerry had on so many lives.
Following these services, Jerry will be honored with a private burial at Glenwood Memorial Gardens, held at the convenience of the family. As we gather to remember Dr. Jerry R. Lewis, we reflect on his dedication to education, his warmth, and his unwavering support for his family and community. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
