Obituary for Jerry Louis LaCaze
A graveside service for Jerry Louis LaCaze will be held at 2:00 on Thursday, January 14, 2021 at Laurel Hill Cemetery with Bishop Chris Catron officiating under the direction of Jeane’s Funeral Service.

Jerry was born December 12, 1959 and passed away January 11, 2021 at the age of 61. He worked as a corrections officer for 27 years and retired at the rank of major. Jerry was a member of the Church of Latter Day Saints and an avid fisherman and hunter. He was a gifted artist who carved wood and could create pieces without a pattern.
