In Loving Memory of Jerry H. Georges

Jerry (Gerasimos) H. Georges, a beloved husband, father, brother, uncle, and godfather, returned to our Lord on March 22, 2025.

Born on April 15, 1964 in Bellflower, California, he was the son of Greek immigrants Aristidis “Harry” and Penelope Georges. Jerry was the cherished sibling of his older brother, John. As first-generation Greek Americans, Jerry grew up speaking Greek as his first language, was raised in the Greek Orthodox Christian Church, and worked from childhood in his father’s restaurants throughout Southern California and Virginia. These traditional values focused his life on hard work and devout faith.

Jerry’s love for fun and music led him to the stage where he performed as vocalist and keyboardist in front of thousands of people every year for decades with his Greek band, Levendia. Jerry captivated audiences was known for his joyful spirit by the Greek community throughout California.

On October 29, 1994, Jerry married the love of his life, Patricia at the  Assumption of

Virgin Mary Greek Orthodox Church in Long Beach, California. Their marriage was filled with laughter, love, and the joy of raising two beautiful daughters, Ariana and Sofia.

Jerry’s career was centered on his amazing ability to inspire and lead. Everyone that knew him appreciated his quick-witted humor and ability to make everyone feel comfortable and welcome. He found joy in sharing jokes, making music, and spending time with his family. He proudly proclaimed that his wife and daughters were his best friends and enjoyed their countless trips to Disneyland.

Jerry is survived by his loving family, including his wife Patricia, his daughters Ariana and Sofia, his brother John and his wife Athena, and many nephews and nieces that adored him. Although his absence leaves an immeasurable void for those that knew him, his memory will continue to inspire his family to find the joy in life and to laugh – even in the most inappropriate moments.

May his memory be eternal.
