Jerry Wayne Pulliam, Jr.

Augusta, GA – Entered into rest on Sunday, August 17, 2025, Jerry Pulliam, Jr., 55.

Everybody needed a Jerry in their life. He never forgot a face, and if he gave you a pinky wave, you were truly special. Jerry was known by everyone for his radiant smile, loving spirit, and quick, funny remarks. But to his family, he was even more — a man whose love of music, Disney movies, riding his three-wheel bike, cheering, and being near the water brought joy to everyone around him. To know Jerry was to experience a love as close to God’s love as one could feel here on Earth.

Family members include:

• His loving parents: Wayne and Nancy Pulliam
• His maternal grandmother: Barbara Hudson
• His brothers: Roff Pulliam (Jennifer Perkins), Tommy Pulliam (Shenae)
• Nieces and nephews: Hudson Pulliam (Tressa), Aldon Pulliam (Bella), Logan Perkins, Adilyn Pulliam, Tucker Pulliam, and Jocelin Green (Brandon)

The memorial service will be held Thursday, August 21, 2025, at 2:00 P.M. at Thomas Poteet & Son Funeral Directors with Pastor Nick Carnes officiating.
