Jerome J. Entenman "Jerry", age 76, of Ambler, PA passed away unexpectedly on Thursday, December 26, 2024.

He was born in Norristown, PA on December 18, 1948, the son of the late William and Margaret (DeHaven) Entenman.

Jerry was raised in Blue Bell and has been living in Ambler for over 50 years. He was a parishioner of St. Anthony of Padua RC Church. He was a Master Electrician and owned and operated Entenman's Electric for 48 years until his recent retirement in August. He loved Ford Mustangs and owned several throughout his life, he passed on a passion for cars to his son and grandsons and enjoyed attending car shows with them. He was the lead driver for many years in the Ambler Christmas parade and drove the Grand Marshall in his beloved '66 Mustang convertible. He loved a good home cooked meal and never turned down seconds...or thirds for that matter. He enjoyed slapstick humor, and always had a joke or funny prop to make his company laugh. He also enjoyed weekend outings either meeting up for coffee & conversation at Starbucks or frequenting a local restaurant for dinner & drinks with his many friends. Most of all, he was a devoted family man. Jerry met Barbara Ann when their families lived near each other as teenagers and they married in 1970. They lived a perfectly simple life, based on the success earned from hard work, a mutual love of their family, the appreciation of a good meal and always making time for fun during their 45 years of marriage. Jerry was an incredible, supportive father to Eric & Karen, and they loved talking on the phone with him daily, just catching eachother up on their everyday life. But mostly, Jerry was a wonderful, engaged Pop Pop to his 6 grandkids. He was so happy when he was around them, they brought him so much joy & they made him beam with pride. He adored his family & appreciated his friendships, many of which spanned decades. Jerry was never known to utter a negative word about anyone, he was a source of positivity, support and encouragement to so many & a role model as well. Jerry will be missed by all that knew him, he was one of a kind .

He was preceded in death by his beloved wife of 45 years, Barbara Ann (Smith) Entenman.
