He was born in Braintree, MA, to Peter and Jane Kearney. At 17 Jerry got his GED, enlisted in the US Navy and worked his way up from a cook to a Lieutenant. He served 23 years active duty during WWII and Korea and 6 years reserves running the commissary at the U.S. Naval Submarine Base in New London, CT. He was blown off the USS Franklin during battle and floated adrift at sea for hours. He was very strong for a man of his size and despite being the smalles of the sailors present, was chosen to hold an actress on his shoulder in a US Navy recruiting poster. After retiring from the Navy he had additional careers as an auto mechanic owning his own garage in Colchester, CT, a dispatcher for Combustion Engineering in Windsor, CT and a gentleman farmer on Bow Lake Road in Barnstead, NH. He spent his retirement years between Bow Lake Road and Province Road in Barnstead, NH and Buckeye Ave in Port Charlotte, FL. He enjoyed, snowmobiling, motorcycling, boating, home remodeling, square dancing, gardening, playing cards. He was known for baking fabulous breads and pies...a skill he learned during his early days in the Navy. He enjoyed attending annual ship reunions for the USS Franklin. He had an outstanding vocabulary and wonderful singing voice. He learned to play the keyboard later in life and enjoyed singing along to that, a karaoke machine or singing the national anthem in the middle of an airplane aisle wearing his USS Franklin cap! (He received thunderous applause and became the celebrity on the plane after that one!) He loved to write love letters to his wife and had several long and humorous poems memorized. He adored his wife, Glendle Emerson, and was father to Donna, Dale, Marion, Bruce Kearney and step-father to George, Greg, Gayle and Gerald Ashley. Jerry died of complications from Alzheimer's disease after several years of declining health. 1930 United States Federal Census about John G Kearney Name: John G Kearney Gender: Male Birth Year: abt 1924 Birthplace: Massachusetts Race: White Home in 1930: Braintree, Norfolk, Massachusetts Map of Home: View Map Marital Status: Single Relation to Head of House: Son Father's Name: Peter Kearney Father's Birthplace: Canada Mother's name: Jane Kearney Mother's Birthplace: Canada Household Members: Name Age Peter Kearney 52 Jane Kearney 47 Gordon P Kearney 26 Lillian E Kearney 20 Rose C Kearney 18 Mabel I Kearney 16 Louise M Kearney 14 Charlotte D Kearney 12 Peter D W Kearney 11 Joseph B Kearney 10 (Find A Grave Memorial# 862742) John G Kearney 6
