Lackie Carter, of 33 short years of marriage. Jerry was a family man and extremely proud of his sons, Michael G. Carter (Lyndsi), Ben R. Lackie (Angela) and preceded in death by J. Eythan Lackie (Kasie). Gramps created memories with his grandchildren that will last them a lifetime: Skylin J. Lackie, Olivia J. Lackie, Paisley R. Lackie, Emma R. Wilson and Lorelei D. Carter. Jerry is also survived by his parents, Jimmie and Pauline Carter and siblings: Paula Herman (Linn), Gene Carter (Cheryl), Carroll Carter (Sue), Joy Odem (Raymond), and Lea Baber (Glen). Jerry was a member of IBEW Local 995; Deacon of South Baton Rouge Church of Christ and led Prison Ministry for 35+ years. Jerry was one of the greatest men one could ever know.
