Jeremiah McDevitt Obituary

We are thankful for the wonderful memories of Uncle Jerry. We will miss him very much.

We are so sorry to hear of your loss Pat and Joan. We only met him a few times and your selves but his goodness and wonderful sense of humour and zest for life was there for all to see and love. The angels can have a laugh now.
Fran Del and Ellen (friends of Marlene)

Thinking of you with deepest
sympathy, Love

Dear Joan and Family:
Jerry will be so greatly missed as there was never a dull moment when he was around; he was most definitely blessed with the gifts of quick wit and laughter. You and your children were very lucky to have had a man such as this for a husband and a father. My thoughts and prayers are with you now and will stay with you through this difficult time. May God watch over and bless all the McDevitts.

My deepest sympathy to you and your family. I remember meeting you and Jerry when Fr. Pat was in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. I am very sorry to hear about your loss and you and your family will always be in my prayers.

Patrick and family,
Please be assured of my prayers for you and your family at this time. May he rest in blessed peace.

Our deepest sympathies. I remember all the great parties at my Uncle Ed's house. Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire family.

Jim and Christine Lanuti

Joan and Family: Please accept our condolences - Jerry was a great and funny guy. We always enjoyed it when he was at family parties for the Brown's and the Cronins. We will keep you in our prayers.

we love u uncle jerry. u will always be in our thoughts and prayers. i will remember him by his wit, his personality and to make people laugh all the time. gone but not forgotten!

I knew Jerry most of my life, he brought so much humor and quick wit to everyone whoever met him. I feel not only that I lost a brother in law , but a true friend and my "step father" He helped giude me after my dad died

In the short time that I knew Jerry, it was plainly evident what a wonderful, warm, and funny man he was. Clearly a man who was as proud of his family as they of him. He will be missed by all.

Please share this information with all family members and friends. Please accept our sincere condolences from the Officers, Executive Board Member and all CWA Local 4250/5050 members and retirees.

THE UNION MAN

As a member of the working class
Many ups and downs I’ve had
The good times come, the bad times pass
And the good outweighs the bad

I’ve been on strikes, in picket lines
When the times were hard as hell
For what was fair and rightly mine
Just to raise my family well

A truth I’ve learned in all the years
If the working man survives
In spite of hunger, hardship, fears
The Union must be kept alive

But who will know I’ve come this way
When I have reached life’s span
If nothing else just let them say
He sure was a Union Man

In Unity-Strength & Solidarity:

Steve Tisza, President
CWA Local 4250

We were blessed to have such a great man in our lives. Funny & kind. I will miss hearing his wisdom at family reunions.

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. I just saw the two of you not long ago and he was in good spirts. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers at this time of great sorrow. Take care of each other.
