Over a period of more than fifty years, Jerry worked in the poultry business building Bray Chicks of Hagersville and later raising hatching egg chickens and broiler chickens on the family farm. Over the years he participated in community service clubs such as the Kinsmen and the Lions, but he was most committed to the Knights of Columbus where he was a 4th Degree Knight. He was an enthusiastic supporter of the Roman Catholic Church and Separate school system tirelessly working to raise money for the new St. Mary's Church and School in Hagersville. He enjoyed his years on the Roman Catholic School Board, some of it as the Chairman. He sat on the Land-Use Planning Committee, a precursor to the current municipal zoning bodies. Among many other volunteer activities he was also well known as a driver for local cancer patients.
