He was preceded in death by his mother, Martha Pugh, and father, Lawrence Pugh.

His devotion to his friends and family was No. 1 on his list. We are all better people to have had known him and had him in our life. He will be greatly missed and never forgotten. We love you, Pops, and we’ll see you soon.
Three words to describe his life would be love, hope and joy.

To the family or Jerry Pugh. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers go his wife Frieda, John, Sandi, Joshua, Matthew Noel, and Chuch Pugh and his family. I know his grandchildren will miss him dearly. Matt loved going fishing with him and looked for every opportune moment to go with him. I send my love to you all and if there is anything you need just let me know. May God Bless you and keep you in this most difficult time.
