Jerald Lee McDonald

Jerald Lee McDonald (Jerry) found peace on his 81st birthday, December 6th, 2022. Jerry led a good life with his loving wife Judith (Judy), (nee Zoschke). He is survived by his brother Arnold (Jody), and sister, Sandra Fleck, his children Leah Kerley (the late Jeff), L'Nan Knutson (the late Greg), Lynnette Euclide, Tim (Mary) Neu, and Matthew Neu (Gene Berube), brother-in-laws Steve Zoschke and Al (MJ) Zoschke. In addition to his granddaughters, Amber, Crystal, Andie, Aimee, Cassie, Andi, Casey, Ashley and grandson William. He is further survived by many dear family and lifelong friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents, John and Mildred, brother Tom, father and mother-in-law Russell and Mildred Zoschke, brother-in-law Norm, and son-in-law Greg and son-in-law Jeff.

Jerry was a welder who specialized in stainless and aluminum welding which he did at various companies until his retirement from KHS, formerly HK at age 62. He couldn't wait for his last end of day sweep! In his retirement, Jerry started a new hobby of using a scroll saw where he made hundreds of cherished treasures for family and friends.

Jerry was an avid Harley rider and took the annual trip to Sturgis with Judy for many, many years. With his love of hunting and camping he and Judy purchased land up north (The Dirt) to share with family and friends where many great memories have been made.

At Jerry's request there will not be memorial service but a celebration of life party to be held at a later date. Please check back for updates or enter your email address to receive notification.
