Jerry is married and resides in Middletown with his wife, Cher, his seven-year old daughter, Alyssa, and five-year son, Christopher. If he is not doing something with Rotary, Habitat for Humanity, The Salvation Army, or his church, and you will find him on the soccer field coaching his kids. He loves these years when his kids still like to hang out with dad.
