On August 5, 2023 at 87 years of age, our beloved father was reunited with our mom -Elizabeth (Liz), with whom he shared 61 years of marriage. While we are profoundly sad to have lost our father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother and friend, we find some comfort in knowing that our parents are together again. He missed her tremendously every day since she passed.
Jerry was an incredibly kind man who loved his family immensely. Loving husband of Liz, father of Margaret (Gilbert) Hynes and John (Debbie) Hickey; step father of Stan (Doris) Clarke; grandfather of Gail (Terrence) Hickey, Karen (Ivan) Labour, Jefferey Clarke, Gilbert Hynes, Sarah Clarke and Zachary Clarke; great grandfather of Jeremy Hickey and Bella Hickey. Jerry also leaves to mourn his sister Gladys and a large number of cherished nephews and nieces, relatives and friends.
Jerry was predeceased by his wife Elizabeth Hickey, son, Graham Hickey, infant daughter, Mary Hickey and grandson Graham Clarke; parents, John and Margaret Ellen Hickey; sisters, Sarah Ann Fizzard (John) and Mary Barger; brothers, Patrick Hickey (Dorothy), Augustine Hickey (Rebecca); infant twin brother Robert; brother-in-law, Robert Ruff; nephews, Joseph Fizzard, Jim Barger, Jerry Ruff; nieces, Darlene Hickey and Cynthia Hickey; great nephew Philip Fizzard.
The Hickey family would like to extend a special thank you to all of the personal care attendants at Cozy Quarters for the kindness, loving care and friendship so freely given to our father and grandfather during his stay.
Cremation has taken place. Funeral service will be held at 12:30 P.M. on Friday, August 11, 2023, at Fewer’s Memorial Chapel, Clarenville.
Forever in our hearts.
