He accepted Christ at an early age, later joining Mount Pleasant Baptist Church, Cuba, Alabama. He worked at Moldwood Corporation (Sonoco) from a young age until the company closed its doors. He loved to eat and often found something to smile about; being a lovable and kind person and it showed in his heart and always on his face. Those who have preceded him in death are his parents; and those who remain to celebrate his life and to cherish precious memories are: three sons - Kendrick (Katina) Robinson, Tuscaloosa, AL., Jeremy (Nichole) Robinson, Birmingham, AL., and Brandon Robinson of York, Al., one daughter, Felicia Robinson of Tuscaloosa, AL., two sisters, Bennie (Jimmie) Parker and Ramona Parker, both of York, AL., six (6) grandchildren - Nicholas, Kennedi, Na'Kyriah, Camden, Kayden, and Callie, along with aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, former classmates, neighbors and co-workers who loved Jerry and whom he also loved. Surely, Jerry will be missed! To the entire Parker and Robinson Family, we at Weatherly Funeral Home offer to each of you our most sincere and heartfelt sympathy and condolences. May God continue to comfort, to strengthen and sustain you during your time of bereavement.
