Jerry Park Memorial Fund

The life of the late Gerald “Jerry” Joseph Park was marked by his faith and his dedication to his family. Jerry’s work ethic and energy were recognized by everyone he touched. His work was a big part of his identity — as a soldier, farmer, tool maker, engineer, business owner, community servant, father and grandfather.

Jerry was a 1969 graduate of Ridgedale High School and, in 1972, married Patty Conway, his high school sweetheart. Together they built an amazing life and family, including sons Scott (Jessica) Park, Doug (Anne) Park, Brian (Amy) Park, and daughter Melissa (Jarrid) McGuire.

Jerry had a passion for just about anything with a motor and loved his toys, including his Corvette and giving the grandkids hayrides on Grandpa Conway’s Model A John Deere. He had a great passion for smoking and BBQ and cooking for his beloved family.

The charitable endowment fund has been established in his honor and memory.
