He was 79. Jerry was born in Brigham City, UT on July 16, 1943 to Weldon and June O’neil Rasmussen. He was the third of fourteen children. In 1966 Jerry met the love of his life, Teresa Schulze. They were married not long after in 1967. They enjoyed fifty-six amazing years together. Jerry’s greatest accomplishment in life was his four children, Kevin (Tracy), Ronald, Robert (Marci), and Karla Price (Troy). Jerry's greatest passion in life was that of being a brick mason. He had become a journeyman in 1971, completing many family homes and commercial buildings over a span of 50 years from Portland to Las Vegas and Reno to Wyoming, and of course Utah. He was truly a master of his craft. Jerry was a member of The Transfiguration Greek Orthodox Church in South Ogden, Utah. In his later years Jerry enjoyed spending time with his Wife and his best friend and cat, Inca. They spent many of their days walking in the yard together and most of their nights sharing ice cream. Jerry is survived by his wife Teresa, his three sons and daughter. He will be missed by his grandchildren Britni, Kelci, Monica, Shelbi, Jared, Amber, Chadrik; and by his great-granddaughters Blakley and Brielle.
