Jerrie Lloyd McKinney, the son of Lloyd and Wanda (Shore) McKinney, was born October 31, 1961, in Newton. He graduated from Newton High School and then attended Drake University for business management. He joined the U.S. Air Force in 1982, where he served until retiring in 1992 for medical reasons. He then worked as a professional satellite dish installer and later as an electronics specialist for Chuck E. Cheese. Jerrie was a member of VFW Post 788 in Cedar Rapids. He loved spending time in nature and was an animal lover. He volunteered at and donated to many wildlife refuges as well. Jerrie enjoyed building race cars, saltwater fishing, target shooting, and fast cars. He especially loved doting on his cats, Shredder and Terror, who were like children to him.

Jerrie is survived by his sisters, Patricia (Eddie) Frommer of Independence, Missouri and Marilyn (Tom) Robertson of Waterloo, Iowa; his nephews, Andy Manley, Tony Rudkin, Adrian Joy and Ryan Joy; his uncle, Dean (Letitia) Shore of Newton; aunt, Janice Schmidt of Baxter; and several cousins.
