Jerry was born on March 16, 1950 in St. Louis, Missouri, the son to the late Gladys and Harry Lampe.
Jerry attended grade school in Missouri and later graduated with a Masters of Arts degree from Webster University.
He was a very kind, generous, and tender soul. He was always there for anyone in need. Jerry devoted 22 years to the Metropolitan Employment and Rehabilitation Service as a job counselor for disadvantaged individuals.
He loved playing the guitar, bowling, and was a big fan of trivia. He also enjoyed board games and looking into his family’s genealogy.

Along with his parents, Jerry is preceded in death by his loving wife, Patricia and his brother, Thomas Lampe.
