LAURIE A. JERGER

MIDDLEBURY — Laurie A. Jerger passed away on May 16, 2024, at the University of Vermont Medical Center in Burlington.

Laurie was born in Burlington on July 11, 1967, the first daughter of Wilhelm and Marjorie (Scott) Jerger. She graduated from Vergennes Union High School in 1985.

Laurie spent her childhood days surrounded by aunts, uncles, cousins, friends and neighbors on the family farm in Ferrisburgh. Anyone would tell you that she was a farmgirl true and true. She did all the chores, drove tractor, and had many farm heroism encounters. If you ask any family member, they’ll tell you a tale or two.

After high school Laurie left the farm life and got one of the best gifts that she treasured the most, her daughter Ashley and years later, her granddaughter Peyton.

Laurie enjoyed cooking for anyone and everyone. If you were in her presence, you left with something tasty that she made. Laurie made her special dishes with love and enjoyed making you smile. Laurie loved her family and friends.

Laurie is survived and will be dearly missed by her mother, Marjorie Jerger of Ferrisburgh; her daughter, Ashley Jerger and her significant other Ryan West; her siblings, Cary Davis (Sean), of Ferrisburgh, Jeffrey Jerger (Pilar), of Ferrisburgh and Bradley Jerger (Stacy), of Ferrisburgh; her granddaughter, Peyton “Boober” West; several aunts and uncles; nieces, Albee “Alba” and Jade Jerger; nephew August Jerger; and numerous cousins. She also leaves behind her favorite companion, Smokey.
