He is survived by his daughter, Kristina A. Nelson (Melissa Bosch); grandson, Theodore J. (Connie) Nelson; granddaughter, Adrienne A. Nelson; great-grandson, Lukas T. Nelson; several cousins; lifelong brother of choice, Al Cybulski and his cherished feline companion, Meikos. His family and friends will hold onto the many treasured memories they shared with him.

Visitation will take place on March 18, 2025, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM at Newcomer Funeral Home, Northeast Chapel, located at 3047 E Dublin Granville Rd, Columbus, OH 43231. A funeral service will follow at 12:00 PM and conclude at 1:00 PM.
Jerry was a larger than life fan of all sports but particularly his Arkansas Razorbacks and Ohio State Buckeyes. His legacy of mad skills poker, Little Brown Jug shenanigans, madcap fishing trips, unwavering enthusiasm for sports at all hours of the day or night, and silly humor will live on in the hearts of those who had the privilege of knowing him.
