JERRY DAVID GOSS, 81, passed away suddenly at Piedmont Health Care Center on Saturday, March 9, 2024. The Piedmont Native was one of five children born to David Lewis and Pluma Buttram Goss. He was preceded in death by his parents; siblings: Peggy Cash, Shirley Davis, and Steve Goss; and recently his wife of 45 years, Debra Kay Newsome Goss.

Many years he took great pride and care of the lawn at the Piedmont High School field.
He is survived by his children: Tammie (Gregg) Howard; Brian (Tonya) Goss; and Andrew (Gina) Wheeler; grandchildren: Mitchell (Erica) Howard, Kayla Howard, Austin Goss, Davis Wheeler and Derrick DelBuono; great grandchildren: Maddie and Caden; sister: Deborah Parris; and several nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews.
