He traveled the world visiting many countries during his 20-yearlong career with the U.S. Navy and retired from service in 1991. Following his retirement from the Navy, Jerry held many different jobs at various businesses in the area. He had a very strong work ethic and even enjoyed hard work. His hobbies included camping, wood working, supporting family activities, traveling, listening to audio books and watching movies. He enjoyed working with technology and was very computer savvy. Jerry was a hard worker and a very caring person to all. He was very involved in attending sports events of all kinds. He loved to take family trips camping, sledding, picnicking, and to corn mazes or haunted houses; anything to be involved. He had several health issues, which made LW GLI¿FXOW IRU KLP to be involved in the last few years. He will be missed by many. He maintained a lasting relationship with his ex-wife, Janet Lambert, they depended on each other for much friendship and love. Jerry is survived by his son, Jerry Lee Lambert Jr. & wife Nicole of Bend, OR; his sisters, Mary Peterson of Idaho; Jean Reed & husband Floyd of Alaska; Penny Whitehall of Pilot Rock, OR; Rocky Stout of Pilot Rock; Patty Lambert of Pilot Rock; and Kathy Lambert & husband Allen Orr of Pendleton, OR; and a brother, John Lambert & wife Billy of Pilot Rock; as well as 31 nieces and nephews.
