August 2, 1940 — November 24, 2021
Jerrie Sue "Nana" Folk, age 81, passed away Wednesday, November 24, 2021, at Moran Manor, in Moran, Kansas.
Jerrie was born August 2, 1940 to Edward and Pauline (Bell) Cox in Neosho Falls, Kansas. She attended school in Neosho Falls as well. She married John R. "Tom" Folk on May 9, 1957 in Iola, Kansas, at the age of 17. Their union was blessed with five children.
Jerrie was a housewife all of her life. She loved going with Tom to the races. They did the traveling circuit so they were constantly on the road. During the later part of her life, she really got into playing Bingo and loved winning the prizes while she was in the nursing home! She was an avid shopper and loved to go out and find new treasures. If she wanted it, she got it. Family was very important to her. She loved family gatherings and watching her big family get together and make memories.
