Jerry Lynn Suchma Jr.

Jerry Lynn Suchma, Jr., 87, of Rosenberg, went home to be with the Lord on November 12, 2017. He was born August 29, 1930, the son of Jerry L. Suchma, Sr. and Willie Mae Walcik Suchma. He graduated from Richmond High School on a Friday evening in 1948, being a member of the last graduating class before Richmond and Rosenberg consolidated. The following morning, he left for Navy boot camp where he went to Radio Operator School, specializing in both Morse code and voice. He was stationed on the USS Union AKA 106, a cargo and troop ship, and was discharged in 1950. His first job back home was with Texas Gulf Sulfur. His following work history included HL&P and Needville I.S.D. At the time of his passing, he was a member of Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Rosenberg, and a resident of Cambridge Square Assisted Living, also in Rosenberg. He never met a stranger, and his smile always left a lasting impression on all. He was preceded in death by his first wife, Anita, along with his parents, sisters, brother, and countless other relatives/in-laws. Survivors include his wife of 19 years, Helen Schultz of Rosenberg, sons and daughters-in-law, David/Sheree Suchma of Conroe, and Mark/Jeanette Suchma of Richmond along with daughter and son-in-law, Marsha/Don LeRouax of Onalaska, grandsons and spouses Chris/Candace Suchma of Buda, Kevin/Michelle Suchma of Conroe, Kyle Suchma of Houston, Steven/Heather Suchma of Richmond, and Brandon Byrd and Matthew Byrd, both of Brooklyn, New York, 3 great grandsons (Mikey Grayson, Nico and Rowan Suchma of Conroe) and 2 great granddaughters (Tori and Stella Suchma of Richmond), along with sisters-in-law, nephews, nieces, and numerous other relatives and friends. He is also blessed to be survived by Helen's children, Susie Kovar, Sandra Baxter, Phil Schultz, Perry Schultz and Scott Schultz, along with their extended families, who he loved as his own. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests a donation to a charity of your choice. Funeral services will be held Saturday, November 18, 2017 at Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Rosenberg at 10:00 A.M. with burial to follow in Greenlawn Memorial Park. The family will receive friends from 9 A.M. until service time at the church.
