He was the oldest of six children born Sept. 17, 1916 to Allan and Fern Frances Jerred of Gregory, SD. As a young boy he lived near Texan, Millboro and Wewela SD. He was preceded in death by his parents, step-father Worden Jerred, and sister Allie May, brothers Darrel, Dale, Jon and Billie. His loving wife of 64 years, Marjorie Monroe Jerred and mother of his children, preceded him in death on June 22, 2003. He is survived by his sister, June Gould Streets (Ray) of Newcastle, WY., son JoDel (Ramona) of Monument, CO. and daughter JoAnn Toland (Roger) of Rapid City, SD., five granddaughters, Heidi Lagasca (Ernest) of Colorado Springs, Heather Ibarra (Pablo) of Great Bend, KS, Joy Zeigler (Brent) of Rapid City, SD., Stacey Thompson (Nate) of Plymouth, MN., and Holly Sparks (Dusty) of Buena Vista, C0.,six great- grandchildren,Tate and Taron Lagasca, Brock, Trey and Alexa Ibarra, and Jordon Sparks., nieces, nephews, and sister-in-law Juliette Jerred of Apache Junction, AZ. At 16 years of age he and his Dad walked the sawdust trail of the Custer Livery Stable to give their hearts and life to Jesus. He attended Custer High School from 1931-1935 and in his junior year joined the Civilian Conservation Corp as a local woodsman where he sent home $27 a month to his parents and kept $3 for himself. After his marriage to Marjorie in 1939 he worked the WPA program learning cement and masonry. He attended business school in Chillicothe, MO. and worked sawmills and made 200 grain doors a day. He worked at the VA hospital in Hot Springs and the Black Hills Ordinance in Igloo. He served his country in the Navy from 1944-1946 as radarman second class on the USS LYCOMING, in the Pacific. He worked the postal service 1948-1973, working out of St. Paul, Sioux City, Winona and Rapid City, on the railway and Highway Post Offices. One of his greatest joys was in using his skills as a carpenter and mason in the building process of the physical part of God's kingdom. He spent many years working a second job in the building trade and took great pride in his work. They spent 20 wonderful retirement years with many friends in Mesa before moving to Colorado Springs in 1997. He devotedly cared for his wife for 12 years as she battled Lou Gehrig's disease. His fun and happy ways and that great chuckle of a laugh will be missed by his family that knew they were special, and all his friends the country over. He will be sorely missed at the assisted living that has been so loving and caring in his twilight years. He was an active caregiver and resident activity director, and was loved by all. He thanked the Lord every morning for the light of a new day---and we know He is thanking the Lord today for keeping him through the journey of life that has touched our lives forever…..leaving us with his love and memories for a lifetime. Funeral services will be Mon., June 28 at First Wesleyan Church of Rapid City SD. Burial will follow at Custer, SD. Friends may sign Lowell's guestbook at www.kirkfuneralhome.com. Kirk Funeral Home of Rapid City is in charge of the arrangements.
