Gerald A. Becker

He was born on March 26, 1957, the son of John P. and Laurene M. (nee Vorderbruggen) Becker. On April 19, 1986, Jerry was united in marriage to Sharon L. Legate at St. Kilian Catholic Church in St. Kilian. Jerry was an electrician and had worked at Regal Ware for 45 years. Jerry worked harder than most and was often found working on projects until they were to his standard of perfection. Jerry was an avid woodworker and shared his talents by leading the 4-H woodworking youth in many projects. He had a generous heart and was always willing to lend a hand to those in need. He planted his vegetable garden bigger than he knew he would need, knowing he would share most of the produce with friends and family. He enjoyed raising and showing rabbits, snuggling with his dog, and, most of all, spending time with his family.Those Gerald leaves behind to cherish his memory include his wife, Sharon; children, Morgan Legate, Robert Becker, and Elizabeth (Timothy) Twohig; grandson, Brandon Jacobson; mother, Laurene Becker; siblings, Corrine Preston, Grace Loehr, Angela (Stephen) Galleske, Arnold Becker, Daniel Becker, and Steven (Jessica) Becker.
