He had a special place in his heart for the Wounded Warriors and carried their stories with him always.

Jerry Page Price, 87, of Stafford, Virginia, formerly of Alexandria, Virginia, passed peacefully on May 23, 2020 at home with his daughters beside him. Jerry was born in Monroe, Union County, North Carolina to Page and Evelyn Price. As a youngster he picked cotton, played baseball, and became active in the Future Farmers of America (F.F.A.)

His project consisted of planting seven acres with 3,000 pine seedlings, clearing 720 feet of fire lanes and overseeing the growth of four acres of growing timber. Jerry also participated in the Farm Mechanics, Farm and Home Electrification, Soil and Water Conservation and the State Star Farmer contests. Never in the history of the organization has any one F.F.A. member won such a large percentage of the individual contest prizes as Jerry Price of Wesley Chapel did that year. During high school, Jerry individually won four state championships and received his Carolina Farmer Degree. In 1952 he completed his American Farmer Degree, the highest degree awarded by the National F.F.A. Association. Jerry continued to maintain this forested area and today these trees are still owned by the Price Family.
