Surrounded by love and peace, Jerry O’Neil peacefully passed away on November 5, 2023, at the age of 72. Jerry was a devoted and loving husband, celebrating 51 years of blissful marriage with his beloved wife Isabel (nee Martin).
Jerry was born to Leonard O’Neil and the late Audrey, and he held a special place in his heart for his father, who taught him the values of love, compassion, and dedication. Along with being a loving son, he was also a cherished son-in-law to the late Joseph and Lucille Martin.
As a father, Jerry was a true pillar of strength and love for his children – Gerry (Jen), Tricia (Matt), Stephanie, and Ryan. His unwavering support shaped them into the incredible individuals they are today. Jerry’s greatest joy was watching his children flourish and succeed in life, and his love for them was immeasurable.
Jerry’s legacy lives on through the hearts of his treasured grandchildren – Jakob, Josh, Tyler, Alyssa, Matt, Lucas, Hailey, Kaelyn, Jack, Ben, and Nash. His eyes would sparkle with pride and joy as he watched them grow, passing on his wisdom and love to the next generation.
Jerry was a dear brother to Marilyn (late Walter), Kathy Lepain (Mike)(late Chris Lepain), Patricia Cassady (Dan), and Debbie Marshall (Mark).
Brother-in-law to the late Fred Martin (Mabel), Henry Martin (late Barb), Joanne Gagnon (Raymond), John Martin (Lynne), Tom Martin (Brenda), Lauramae Pope (late Raymond), and the late Madeline Jobin (late Ron).
Jerry dedicated many years of his life to Ford Motor Company, retiring after 30 years of service. He was also a member of the Knights of Columbus # 2844.
Jerry’s true passion and fulfillment came from the love and unity of his family. He and Isabel shared an unbreakable bond, always by each other’s side, exemplifying the true meaning of marriage and partnership. Jerry’s laughter filled every room he entered, bringing warmth and joy to those around him. His unwavering and strong faith was an example for his family to follow. Many memories were shared on his property which he took great pride in.
