Luther - Jerry Alan Briggs, of Tustin passed away on Tuesday, March 22, 2022 at Bakersfield AFC Home, while under the care of friends. He was 59.
He was born on November 16, 1962, in Reed City, Michigan to Dale and Louella (Holcom) Briggs. He proudly served his country with the United States Army, and spent time overseas stationed in Germany. In earlier years you could often find Jerry behind the camera taking photos or behind the lens of his telescope gazing at the stars. He enjoyed visiting the local RC air show in Tustin and even had his own remote controlled plane. Jerry also liked panning for gold and worked the ground in his garden. He will be remembered by many for his good cooking and his spirit.
