Jerry Leonard Dickeson, age 79, of Johnson City, Tennessee went home to be with his Lord and Savior on Tuesday, November 8, 2022 at the Johnson City Medical Center. Jerry was born in Washington County, Tennessee, a son of the late William Edgar Dickeson and Ruby Elizabeth (Sherfey) Dickeson. In addition to his parents, Jerry was also preceded in death by an infant brother, Stanley Dickeson and another brother, Steven Dickeson.

Jerry had worked as a machine operator at American Water Heater (now A.O. Smith) for over 30 years before retiring. He attended College Park Free Will Baptist Church and loved all kinds of sports- especially racing. Jerry also enjoyed reading the newspaper, walking at Sycamore Shoals Historic Park with his dog, “Skeeter” and playing golf.

Those left to cherish and remember Jerry include his loving wife of 38 years, Sarah Dickeson; three daughters, Donna Brookshear (Daniel), Carla Miller (Christi Duncan), and Jennifer Mayberry (Teena Main); three grandchildren, Wesley Brookshear (Justin), Katie Brookshear, and Amber Brookshear; three great grandchildren, Brier Jones, Abby Mae Jones, and Maddie Jones; and one brother, Joe Dickeson (Helen). Several nieces, nephews, and cousins also survive.
