Jerry was born March 22, 1953, in Mt. Pleasant, the son of Norman and Donna (Nobel) Zuker. He graduated from Mt. Pleasant High School with the class of 1972. Jerry married Cathy Schroll and cared for her with gentleness and love during their 43 years of marriage. Cathy preceded Jerry in death on November 23, 2020. He worked for CMU in facilities management beginning in 1985 until his retirement on June 30, 2010. Jerry was a lifelong Mt. Pleasant resident. He stayed close with his high school friends and enjoyed the yearly golf outing, “The Bones Open”.
