Jeri A. Locher
OBITUARY
Jeri A. Locher, 81, of Macungie, passed away peacefully on June 23, 2026. She was the loving wife of John C. Locher for 58 years. Born in Allentown, she was the daughter of the late Edward J. and Catherine E. (Horvath) Kudla. She was a member of St. John the Baptist Catholic Church, Allentown. Jeri was a graduate of Dieruff High School, Class of 1963. Following high school, she worked for the Paul Matis Accounting Firm. After marrying John, she was grateful for the years she spent at home raising her family. Later, she enjoyed a fun chapter working as a hostess at Widow Brown’s Restaurant. Among her many interests, Jeri loved shopping, decorating, entertaining, and was a wonderful cook who created a warm and beautiful home. She treasured time spent with her family and friends, enjoyed afternoons on the golf course as an avid golfer, loved dining out, traveling and appreciated a martini from time to time. Jeri was not only the best wife, mom and Mimi, she was our best friend, the center of our family and the person we turned to for comfort, laughter, and love. Her family was her heart — her husband and daughters meant everything to her, and her grandson was the light of her life. We will carry her love with us always.
She is Survived by: Husband, Daughters: Vanessa A. Fry (Bill) and Jill M. Nevenglosky (Pete) and Grandson: Cole A. Nevenglosky.
