Jerald Delgado

Jerry was a man of many talents and passions. He had a deep love for music and was known for his signature dances, always eager to spread joy to those around him. His unique ability to ride a unicycle never failed to amaze and delight others. His career journey was as diverse as his interests, with roles that included serving as a vehicle aid at American Medical Response, a sales representative at Godiva Chocolate, a window distribution clerk at the United States Post Office, an administrative aide at Joan of Arc Junior High School, and a dedicated crossing guard.

Above all, Jerry was a loving father. His son and firstborn, Jerkeme, cherished him deeply, treasuring the lessons, wisdom, and boundless love his father imparted. Jasmine, his youngest daughter, adored him, and her face would light up with pure joy every time she saw him. In both of them, Jerry’s smile lives on, a lasting reflection of the profound love and light he brought into their lives.

Jerry’s love knew no bounds, extending unconditionally to his stepchildren, Charlene and Gregory, whom he embraced as his own with a full and open heart. He guided them with love, care and affection, creating bonds that were strong and deeply cherished. As a grandfather, he was unwaveringly devoted to Jetta, Jada, Jordin, and Courtney, enriching their lives with his deep wisdom, boundless warmth, and endless affection.

Jerry shared a special bond with his nephew Timothy, who not only loved his uncle deeply but also considered Jerry his best friend. Their close-knit relationship was a source of mutual happiness. Jerry’s niece, Angelica, brought immense joy to his life, even though they were separated by distance. He also had a deep connection with his cousins, Valerie Best and Robin Williams, who held an irreplaceable place in his heart. These relationships went beyond mere family ties; they were bonds of love and loyalty that Jerry cherished, reflecting his unwavering commitment to family, which he valued above all else.
