Obituary

Jack "Jerry" Dyball, 86, of Cedar Rapids, passed away on Thursday, June 15, at the home of his daughter and son-in-law, Sandra and Scott Nelson, where he had lived for the past seven years.  A celebration of Jerry's life will be held from 4 to 6 P.M. Tuesday at Papich-Kuba Funeral Home East, 1228 2nd Street S.E.

He was born September 14, 1936 in Westgate, Iowa, the son of Jack and Evelyn (Fox) Dyball.  As a young boy, he enjoyed hunting and spending time with his uncle Sheldon Fox who helped Jerry develop his wit and sense of humor.

Jerry graduated from Maynard High School and enlisted in the Air Force in Sioux City, Iowa following graduation.  During his military service, he married Jeanette Baker on June 27, 1959 and to this union five daughters, Kelly, Jacqueline, Laura, Sandra and Scharey were born.

The family eventually moved to Cedar Rapids, where Jerry worked 26 years for Dr. C.R. Kitchen in Lindale Mall.  Jerry was an avid fan of the Iowa Hawkeyes and the Chicago Cubs.  The time he spent with his grandson, Jack was very special to him.  Together they loved to fish and participate in many Fish-O-Ramas.

Left to cherish Jack's memory are his daughter, Sandra (Scott) Nelson; grandson, Jack; sister, Jean Novotny of Oregon and many grandchildren.

Jack was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Alan "Bud" of California; and a sister, Sharon McBride of Eldora, Iowa.

Jerry was well known for his sense of humor which he kept his entire life.  He also had an extremely kind nature.  He will be deeply missed by his family and friends.
