Jerry met the love of his life, Judy, in 1992, and the two have been inseparable since, spending 34 wonderful years together. He and his brother, worked as mechanics at Union 76 Gas Station beginning in November of 1976 before opening up their own business together, Webster Brothers Garage, which provided service to the community for 51 years.
Jerry had many hobbies but all involved cars or motorcycles of some kind. He enjoyed riding Harley Davidson motorcycles and traveling to car shows and cruise-in’s with Judy. His biggest passion of all was drag racing. Jerry raced up until his diagnosis with Dementia in 2019, but remained in constant attendance and was a pillar of support for the racing community.
He shared a special bond with his shih tzu, Tiffany. Where there was Jerry, there was Tiffany- his world revolved around her. Jerry will always be remembered for his sense of humor that was one of a kind, his giving heart, and love he had for his family.
