Jerry retired in 2009 from ArcelorMittal Steel (formerly Lukens Steel Company) in Coatesville, PA as a Shift Manager-Steel Distribution/Heating and Manufacturing after 40 years of service. Jerry always said the “South called him back.” After retirement, he and his wife left the rolling hills of Chester County for the low country of Myrtle Beach.

Jerry was preceded in death by his dad (Clalley Price), nephew (Louis D. Wood III), and brother (Tommy Price). Jerry was a kind man who lived out his Christian testimony daily. He enjoyed kidding and teasing people, making them smile and laugh. He also enjoyed reading, researching things, walking, playing with Abbey and Doc (his fur babies) and having adventures with his wife and family.
