Jerri Bell Obituary

Bell
Jerri (Westmoreland) Bell
November 16, 1942
January 9, 2025

Jerri Bell, 82, formerly of Colorado Springs, passed away on January 9, 2025. She will be missed by all who knew her.
The last years of Jerri's life were spent in North Carolina with her daughter, Paige, and son-in-law, Rob, where they shared many cherished moments together. Whether it was enjoying meals out, playing bingo, or simply visiting with one another, Jerri found joy in being around loved ones. Her laughter, humor, and love of socializing left a lasting impression on everyone she met.
Jerri was a loving and caring friend, and her circle of friends will forever remember her infectious personality. Many of those friends who passed before her are surely waiting to welcome her home.
Some of Jerri's interests included watching television, especially PBS, reading books, and a love for dogs and cats of all kinds.
One of Jerri's proudest achievements was returning to school in her late 30s to earn her bachelor's degree in business from UCCS.
Jerri's sense of humor and infectious laugh will never be forgotten. She leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and cherished memories.
Mom, we miss you and love you so much!
Arrangements are with Strickland Funeral Home & Crematory, 211 W. 3rd Street, Wendell, NC 27591. www.stricklandfuneral.com.
