Oct. 11, 1949 ~ Feb. 17, 2025
Jerry Dee Eliasen, oft called the “Big Dude” in our home, was born Oct. 11, 1949, in Rifle, Colorado, to Antone Bryan (Whitey) Eliasen and Mary Jean Findley Eliasen, the 10th of 15 children along with his twin sister Jenny.
Jerry’s parents moved into Meeker from Piceance Creek to a small house near the top of 11th Street. The boys slept in the outbuilding and the girls slept…
Jerry was a great guy. He was a good friend to my dad, Lew Livingston, and helped him often. Always had a smile on his face and willing to help anytime he could. My sincere condolences to his family and friends.
