We say goodbye to Jerry W. Woodlock, 73, of Gainesville. Jerry passed away on Saturday, May 19, 2018, in Sherman, Texas following an abrupt illness. Jerry was born in Fort Worth, Texas on December 18, 1944, to Robert and Mary Lou Reaves Woodlock, the youngest of four children.

He served in the Army National Guard.

In 1965, he married Beverly Nelson. After completing his education, Jerry and Beverly moved to Gainesville, Texas where they raised their sons, Chris and Clint. For 48 years, Jerry served the community in various civic rolls, including State District Judge.

Jerry is survived by his wife, sons and daughter-in-law Lawana, granddaughters Kylie and Reagan, sister Dixie Dunton and her husband Mike Dunton, and many wonderful nieces and nephews.
