After graduating from Portage High School in 1980, he went on to play college baseball and earn his bachelor's degree from the University of Indianapolis (Indiana Central College), followed by his master's degree in education administration. Jerry dedicated his entire life to serving others in education and coaching serving in the Portage Township School Corporation, Union Township School Corporation and in the Lake Station Community Schools. His biggest passion, however, was the deep love and devotion he had for his family.
