He never hesitated to put others before himself and was always the first to offer a helping hand, a warm smile, or a word of encouragement. Whether family, friend, or stranger Jerry treated everyone with respect and kindness.He worked for many years as a forklift driver before retiring and dedicating himself to being the full-time caregiver for his beloved mom. His commitment to his family was unparalleled, and he considered caring for his mother one of the greatest honors of his life. Jerry was preceded in death by his father, Lawrence Lee (Pop) Maricle, and his brother, Steven Maricle. He is survived by his devoted mother, Paula “Clarette” (Mom)  Maricle; his brothers, Ronald, Michael, and Curtis; his loving children; daughter, Heather Hassell; his son, Wes Earwood; and his treasured grandchildren: Nathaniel, Catherine, Preston, Presleigh and Parklyn.
