He was a graduate of Moline High School “Class of 66” and a Navy Vietnam Veteran. He was a long-time member of Edgewood Baptist Church, Rock Island. He took great pride in owning and operating the family business, Cosner’s Friendly Service, with his father and sons. He later worked for Export Packaging until his retirement.

He enjoyed bowling, golf, trips with his golf buddies, but above all else spending time with his precious family. Jerry will be greatly missed by his wife, Diane; children, Greg (Donetta), Dan (Thera), and Shelly; his sisters, Sue and Kay; and his eight grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his parents.
