PAID OBITUARY

Gerald (Jerry) P. Duley
July 31, 1946 ~ April 10, 2017

Gerald (Jerry) Patton Duley died on Monday, April 10, 2017. He was 70.

Jerry was born on July 31, 1946, in Ashland, Kentucky, to Frank and Eunice Duley.

He served in the U.S. Army from 1963 to 1967 in Germany. Jerry was discharged as a disabled veteran and moved to Washington where he worked at the Crown Zellerbach paper mill in Camas. Jerry and his wife, Kathy, moved to California in 1968 where he was a manager of Builder’s Emporium, a home improvement store.

In 1970, they moved back to Washington, where he was an assistant manager of a discount department store in Vancouver and later managed Samuel’s Jewelry at the Vancouver Mall. While there, he helped start the Vancouver Mall Lions Club and was its first president.

After leaving retail, Jerry worked for Columbia Machine, La Valley Plastics, Fiberglass Maintenance and then at Hewlett Packard. He also was a licensed painter and owned a produce company until his health caused him to retire. He coached Little League and served as a league president, player agent and scorekeeper. Jerry loved hunting, fishing and camping with his family, especially at the Oregon Coast during the summertime. He never outgrew his love for Kentucky and his roots.

Jerry is survived by Kathy, his wife of 54 years; two sons, David (Tiffanie) and Jerry (Robin); his former daughter-in-law, Charlotte; brothers, Frank, Fred and Tim; sister, Lynn; eight grandchildren and two great-grandsons.
