He grew up in the New England area and attended New England Public School, completing his education through the eighth grade. Jerome spent much of his life working with his hands and providing for his family. He worked as a farmhand and later for John Deere Implement. He was known for his strong work ethic and the pride he took in a job well done. On September 21, 1979, Jerome married Caroline Marie Runge at St. Joseph's Church. Together they made their home in Dickinson and built a life centered around family. Jerome enjoyed the outdoors and spending time with family and friends.
