Jerry Larsen
Bro. Jerry was born in Port Arthur, Texas on November 27, 1935 to Sven Erik and Marcella Larsen, who had just arrived in America from Denmark. A long time Houstonian, and devoted sports fan for all Houston teams, Jerry attended San Jacinto High School, and joyfully gathered each year with dear friends at their reunion. He proudly served in the United States Army during the conflict in Korea, and then graduated from the University of Houston in 3 years, passing the CPA exam on the first attempt. He married Ann Murray on February 8, 1957, 20 days after their first date (as he would frequently emphasize!) and she remained the love of his life for 66 years. Jerry was a 50 + yr Mason and a member of Clear Lake Masonsic Lodge 1417 in El Lago, Texas. Bro. Jerry was an avid motorcyclist. He and Ann toured the United States and made several trips to Europe to ride. He joined the Free Masons Riding Club Jan 28, 2007. Bro. Jerry laid down his working tools on May 31, 2023.
