William Joseph Jeric, age 82, of Red Lion, Pennsylvania, originally from Cleveland, Ohio, passed away on Sunday, September 6, 2026.

Born on August 29, 1944, William was the son of the late Frank and Rose (Tomsic) Jeric. He was the beloved husband of Kathryn A. (Brunecz) Jeric, with whom he shared 61 years of marriage, a remarkable lifetime of love, devotion, family, and cherished memories.

William was a devoted father to his two sons, Bill Jeric (Julie) and Mark Jeric (Lisa); and his daughter, Terri Peters (Eddie), all of Maryland. He was a proud and loving grandfather to Samantha Peters, Sarah Jeric, Stephanie Lambert, Anna Jeric, Emily Jeric, and Molly Jeric, and a loving great-grandfather to Joseph Jeanetta, all of Maryland. William was predeceased by his brother, Richard Jeric, and niece, Joan Baca. He also leaves behind a nephew, Billy Jeric (Theresa) of Rancho Cucamonga.

William treasured his family. He will be remembered for the love he gave, the memories he created (Go Dawgs!), and the special place he held in the lives of those who knew and loved him. His presence will be deeply missed, but the stories, traditions, and memories shared throughout his 82 years will remain with his family for generations to come.

A Memorial Mass will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, October 17, 2026, at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Dallastown, Pennsylvania. The family will receive relatives and friends at the church from 10:00 a.m. until the beginning of the Mass. Burial will be held at a later date.
