Upon his retirement, he continued as an oil and gas consultant. He was a member of the Gilmer County Masonic Lodge and was a Protestant by faith.

His battle with leukemia and kidney failure was an inspiration to all who knew and loved him. He remained strong and courageous and exhibited a positive attitude that was inspiring to all.

He was a wonderful husband, father, grandfather and friend. He truly was an inspiration to all who knew and loved him. He was a huge man with an even larger heart.

On June 28, 1958, Jerry was united in marriage to Beulah Marie Frashure Robinson who survives at their Tanner home. Beulah is the daughter of Minnie Fern Frashure of Camden and the late William Earl Frashure.

Three daughters and one son survive: Debra Lynn Adams and husband, Rick, of Troy, Kimberly Ann McCormick and husband, Craig, of Parkersburg, Beverly Kay Butcher and husband, Joe, of Jane Lew and Jerry Dean Robinson II of Jane Lew.
