Jerome Dahl, beloved husband, uncle, son and brother, died May 7th after a sudden and unexpected aortic dissection. Jerome is preceded in death by his parents and brothers Marlen and Mark. He is survived by his wife, Kendra, his sister, Mary, his brother, Mitch, and many in-laws, nieces and nephews. Jerome was best known for his Energizer Bunny energy, his unique Jerome-isms at the perfect moment, and his devotion to his rescue dogs. He and Kendra's Yorkie, Lucy, was his best buddy and companion.

Jerome was always ready to serve his neighbor, family, friends, and country - and always did so with great enthusiasm. He served his country as a young man, his wife for almost 20 years, and his neighbors all throughout his life. Jerome's spirit of generosity didn't end at his death - rather it will continue on for many years. Jerome gifted his liver, kidneys and lungs to recipients in need of an organ donation. This last act of service and generosity by Jerome (and Kendra) gave life to others.

At work, Jerome was known for his great work ethic, attention to detail and integrity. At home, he will be remembered for his great humor, his cooking, and keeping his cars and home in pristine condition. Jerome's funeral will be held on Monday, May 13th at 10:00am at Epiphany of the Lord Catholic Church located at 7336 W. Britton Rd. in OKC, OK.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Jerome's name to Raven's Rescue and Relief. Send checks made out to Raven's Rescue and Relief to 237 SW 22nd, OKC, OK, 73109.

We remember and are inspired by one of our favorite Jerome-isms: "Better to try and fail than to fail to try."
