Advancements within Carpetland U.S.A. took him and his family to Schererville, IN in 1986, Champaign, IL in 1989, Portage, MI in 1990 and finally opened his own franchise in Dothan, AL in 1993 where he retired in 2011. He moved to The Villages, Florida in 2012. He enjoyed spending time with his family, especially his grandchildren. He was an avid boater and taught many family members and friends how to water ski. When he moved to Florida he restored his love of ping pong through the The Villages Table Tennis Club and established many wonderful friendships. Jerry was a die-hard Chicago Cubs fan. Go Cubs Go!!
