Obituary of Jerry Lee Escoe

Jerry Lee Escoe was born in Muskogee, Oklahoma on November 19, 1947 to Dave and Katie Escoe. He passed away on January 1, 2021. Jerry was preceded in death by his parents, Dave and Katie Escoe; his in-laws, Charles and Patty Todd; his sister, Mary Pilant; his brother, Joe Escoe; and his sister-in-law, Jutta Escoe.

Jerry was a man of few words and many giggles, but when he spoke, everyone listened. He was deeply loved by everyone who knew him. He loved spending time with his family, especially his granddaughters. He never missed and opportunity to watch his angels play softball and basketball, go to band concerts, school and church programs and parades. He loved to cook breakfast every summer morning for his three angels. Jerry never missed a meal and no matter how much he ate, there was always rooms for another Dr. Pepper and snack cake. He was a collector of many things, including Hot Wheels, M&M memorabilia, and random empty boxes. He loved working in the yard and taking care of his garden. During his breaks, he would sit on the back porch and watch his hummingbirds. He spoiled his family, especially his granddaughters and his dog Sparky. Jerry was deeply loved and will be missed by many. Funeral Services are scheduled on Tuesday, January 5, 2020 at 10:30 a.m. at Green Hill Funeral Home with interment in Green Hill Memorial Gardens.
