Jerry L. Aberant, age 70, passed away on February 2, 2020 due to medical complications. He was born on October 21, 1949 in San Antonio and raised in Nazareth.
Jerry was a man so full of life that it was contagious when you were around him. His passion was music and performing with his bands since high school starting off in his moms basement and the most well-known of them being Cotton Mouth. He loved traveling and sharing the wisdom of all the adventures he had went on. His favorite place to travel to was Yellowstone, a place he had planned on traveling to this summer to show us all of the best spots and explore further. He was hands on and dedicated to his grandchildren and great grandchildren and would do anything to keep a smile on their faces. When he was not busy gardening, he would be at the table with his sweet tea watching Top Fuel cheering on the racers. Jerry worked many jobs but was Union President, and retired from the Union after 30 years. He lived what he would say was a fulfilling life.
He leaves to cherish his memory: His Wife: Vickie Combs; Sisters: Connie Aberant and Lorraine Young. Children: Christian & Jordan Nations, Justin & Leslie Loyd, Barbara Combs, and Jennifer & Jimmy Campbell. Grandchildren: Brittany Harris, Chance Harris, Colton Campbell, Collin Campbell, Christian Nations, Anthony Nations, Adelia Nations, Courtney Nations, Alson Nations, Jaydan Blake, and Joshua Blake. Great Granddaughter: Iris Hamilton. As well as many nieces, other family members, and friends.
Preceded in death by: His father: Leonard Francis Aberant; His mother: Geraldine Aberant Eckert; his brother: Thomas Aberant.
