Jerry Mashburn

Jerry Mashburn, 76, of Sardis City died May 30, 2020, after a short battle with cancer. Jerry was a member of the Sardis High School Class of 1961. He spent the next eleven years in a steel mill in Chicago before returning to his home place in Whitesboro. Jerry became a master carpenter building/renovating residential houses, commercial buildings, cabinets, trim work, and specialty requests, especially for Wanda's special ed classroom. He renovated the Boaz Outlets, the Etowah County Courtrooms, the Gamecock Center at JSU, and Coach Gene Stallings office at Alabama. He was especially proud of the over-sized gun cabinet he built for Coach Stallings' rifle collection. Jerry was preceded in death by parents Rob and Daisy (King), brother Qunnah Lynn, sister Gayla Sue Roden Lyles, infant daughter Colleen, and step-son Patrick Landreth. He is survived by Wanda, his wife of 32 years, his daughters Pam Harrison (Kentucky), Karen Rabuck (Nebraska), Kim (Eric) Brannon and children Erin Butler and Josh (Attalla), and brother Roger (Sardis). It was Jerry's wish to be cremated and brought home to “hang out with Patrick” and help him watch over Wanda. There will be no service due to COVID-19 concerns. Jerry was a Mason for 54 years and the Masonic Rites will be given by the Boaz Lodge.
