THE JUNEAU EMPIRE
Petersburg resident and former Juneau resident Jerry Ratliff died March 4, 2001, in Petersburg.
He was born June 8, 1924, in Purcell, Okla. He served as a pilot with the U.S. Navy. He first came to Juneau to help build the original Snettisham power line, and worked on construction sites from Hyder to Adak. He lived in Juneau from 1968 until 1989, when he moved to Petersburg. He retired six years ago and enjoyed fishing and spending time with his children and grandchildren.
He won the Golden North Salmon Derby in the mid 1970s. He was a lifetime member of the Elks and Eagles clubs, and was an ordained priest in the New Apostolic Church in Juneau.
He is survived by his wife, Hildegard Ratliff, and his son, Bobby Ratliff of Petersburg, his daughters, Beverly Estes and Jerry Lynn Carrol of Washington, and his brother, Buddy Ratliff of Pennsylvania.
A memorial service will be held in Petersburg in June.
