Jerry will be remembered for his love of boating on Lake of the Woods, entertaining and cooking for guests.  He was a caring man with a unique sense of humour.  Jerry was a dedicated Lions Member for over 30 years serving his community.  There is only one Jerry Farr.

Jerry was born and raised in Hamilton, ON.  He then moved to Thompson, MB where he met the love of his life, Judy.  They started their family there and moved to Pinawa in 1982, where they remain until today.

Jerry was a hardworking man.  He worked for INCO in Thompson for 15 years, then onto AECL in Pinawa for 15 years and then off to work for Manitoba Hydro for 15 years until his retirement at age 68.

Many thanks to Dr.  Papetti and Dr. Bruneau for their absolute excellent care.
