She was preceded in death by her mother Mary Saterfield, father Charles Teas, son David Bennett, husband Charles D. Bennett, brother Andy Teas, a second brother, and an infant sister who passed at birth.
She worked at Boeing Aircraft in the transportation sector as a civil servant at Warren Air Force Base. While stationed in Midway, Hawaii, Jeri recognized that there were no facilities for enlisted men to eat. She took the opportunity to establish a chow hall for enlisted men. Jeri did all the cooking so they could have a nice home cooked meal.
She was a beautiful woman who loved to cook and bake. She shared her goodies with the world around her. She was a very caring and giving person, who always enjoyed helping others where she was able. She was loved by so many and the strongest person, I have ever known. She will be missed by so many that loved her.
