At a revival meeting in 1974 he went forward to accept Jesus into his life and was later baptised in December of 1978. He met the love of his life, Marge, in August of 1978 and a year later they were engaged to be married. Their wedding was in November, and the next summer they moved to the farm where they raised their five children and still lived together. Jerrold loved working on the farm and spent many hours with his sons and daughter building up a successful baling business. He also enjoyed working with his show call ducks and old english game bantams. In later years he got into collecting model tractors that represented his years on the fields. Throughout his life he was also very involved in his children’s Christian Private School as well as various church committees.
