Gerald F. Engelman, age 79, passed peacefully in his Lake Havasu City, AZ home on March 13, 2021. Jerry was born in Neenah, WI, and attended Menasha High School before enlisting in the US Army. He was stationed in Korea and earned recognition as a sharpshooter, in 1961 he returned to civilian life. Seeking adventure, Jerry then moved to Ketchikan, Alaska in 1968. He worked at the Ketchikan Pulp Company for 10 years and then began a new pursuit with the purchase of Clover Pass Resort, where his passion for fishing and guiding others created life long memories for family, friends, and travelers from around the world. During those years he often hunted, spent time at the Rod and Gun Club, and actively participated in the small community that supported each other in times of need. In 1997 Jerry moved to Lake Havasu City and enjoyed some well-earned fun in the sun. He found many new hobbies to explore including kayaking & golfing. He was always keeping busy with travel, any number of projects, and tending to his family of rabbits. He became fast friends with many people and especially liked to cook, entertain, bake pies, watch his favorite teams - the Packers and Suns, or get together for trips and excursions. Jerry came to love his neighbors and friends of Lake Havasu City and it's not hard to understand why. Our family extends our deepest gratitude to those that loved him as we did and offered help and kindness throughout his life. They continue to show us support as we mourn his passing and lift our hearts with stories of their time with him. Jerry was preceded in death by his parents, Edward and Joyce (Grant) Engelman, two sisters, Candyce Engelman and Tena Engelman. He is survived by his children: Joy Pattison Jerry Engelman Jr. Chris Engelman Joell Bourdelais Holly Engelman Siblings: Rozanne Hansen Helen Gordy Sherry Tierney Edward Engelman 13 grandchildren, 23 great grandchildren, and his reunited love and companion Barbara Engelman. We encourage anyone wishing to send flowers, to instead make donations to Wounded Warrior Project which Jerry supported faithfully. A celebration of life will be held at a later date. Until then, keep your tips up, your lines tight, and fish on!
