This Obit from Melinda Stiefel:

Jerald passed away on December 29,2025 after a valaint battle with Advanced Stage Alzheimer's. Even after his diagnosis, you'd still find him with a song on his lips and a dance in his step, or him trying to get anyone in the room to dance along with him. His happiness was infectuous and sharing his passions with others was one of his greatest gifts

According to Dennis Morse Jerry passed on December 25, 2025 from dementia.
