Obituary

Jerry Martin, 56, Park City Utility Supervisor, passed away Saturday (March 17, 2018).

Jerry was born Dec. 31, 1961, to Linda (Martin) Shearon and Lonnie Mac Martin. Jerry's hard work ethic was instilled in him by his stepfather, Joseph Drouhard, as he helped his father with his business of moving houses from a young age.

While harvesting, Jerry met Sheila Martin and they were married Oct. 4, 1986. They were blessed with three children: Jen, Jake and Sarah.

Jerry was a devoted father who coached their sports teams and cheered them on at every event. He worked for the cities of Mullinville, Medicine Lodge, Newton and Park City.

After divorcing, he met Annette Weis in April 2010, and their families became one. They were married Oct. 11, 2014. Jerry made their marriage a fairy tale and always put his beloved wife first. Annette's family cherished him as a dad, uncle, son-in-law and brother-in-law. Jerry was adored by his six grandchildren and treasured his role as grandpa. His loves were God, his family, the Chiefs, the Jayhawks, classic rock and golf. He will be greatly missed by many.

He is preceded in death by his father; stepfather; son, Casey James Weis; nephew, Todd Orand; and grandson, Easton Weis.

Jerry is survived by his mother, Linda Shearon; wife, Annette Martin; children: Max (Bailey) Weis, Jen (Matt) Gosser, Kyle (Brittney) Weis, Brady Weis, Jake (Maisie) Martin, J.D. Weis, Sarah Martin and Bailey (fiancé, Brandon Loeb) Weis; siblings: Theresa (Ray) Renfro, Rex Drouhard, Bobby (Lisa) Drouhard and Katie (Kenan) Gray; grandchildren: Koda and Kayden Gosser, Casey and Lincoln Weis, and Addilynn Weis; and many nieces and nephews.
