Grave of Jerry Clower

[@ashleycnoble3280]

We miss you Jerry. This country needs more christen comedians like Jerry. Good clean comedians.

[@coastalkev3776]

I visited his home . You past it going the graveyard. His housekeeper Mrs. Hough let me into a two car garage converted into a museum. His red suit and gold records were in there. All kinds of memorabilia. While visiting his grave , I let my dog of the rope to stretch her legs. She immediately went into those woods. I couldn't see her but could hear a horse whinnying and running around. My dog was chasing the horse. That's a good way for a dog to get shot by the farmer. Finally she came back through the brambles. She was slightly cut up , wet , covered in mud and horse poo. I got her back on the rope. She was panting as much as I was. I was upset and concerned , she was happy and smiling. As I got to my vehicle , I turned and looked back. My concern turned to laughter. I figured ol Jerry was looking down and laughing too. The people of that area are golden , just like Jerry. I'll visit again this Sept.

[@RoseofSharon3]

I saw him in Jemison,Alabama. He came by himself in a Cadillac and left by himself and a big old Cadillac. I’ll never forget how kind he was. Don Willams was also there that night singing. Good stories and good music.

[@mitsnevets]

The remoteness and low key surroundings of Gerrys final resting place was surprising thank you for making the effort to show his fans

[@BackRoads1]

Thank you for watching.

[@annagerstenschlager7316]

Good memories riding with my father in a 68 yellow Plymouth, listening to Jerry Clower on an 8 track.

[@catdaddy5061]

Being born and raise in Amite “A mit” county with family all around there , Jerry Clower was a gem , he commanded a room when he walked in . He liked to hang out at the local pharmacy in Liberty to drink coffee with the boys … He will always be missed … One of the Greatest story tellers, clean comedians and patriarchs with his family . RIP Jerry Route 4 Liberty Ms

[@jaredeastwood7814]

All my family say A mit county too. Jerry is the GOAT.

[@joecool2125]

I'm from that area too. It's funny that you mention the group that hung out at Liberty Drug Store. I usually tell the same story. Mr. Clower's MS State coffee mug is still hanging on the hook where he left it over 20 years ago.

[@jonathanharrison9845]

I really enjoyed seeing the final resting place of Jerry Clower. He meant a lot to me and my family. I grew up listening to him and without a doubt he was the greatest story teller ever. RIP GOAT

[@martowe9689]

Jerry Clower was the best , he was clean you could take the whole family to see hem . Jerry talk a lot about the Ledbetter family . Jerry was funny and humorous . now I am going to watch me some Jerry Clower . Thank for sharing .

[@chadmartin5640]

Id like to thank you for your time and efforts toward Jerrys legacy. With all due respect I appreciated him as much as you do. I was raised by my Great grandparents and I got introduced to him at an early age. I been listening to him my whole life and try to share his album/skits to as many people as I can. He was a great inspiration as well as a great witness for God. Again,i thank you for many people for the respect you have shared.

[@barryjames9812]

Thank You for making this happen. I was able to see Jerry Clower 3 times live. He even came to our little town in Arkansas during the County Fair. He wore a suit with a big Raccoon 🦝 patch. He put on some kind of live show too. He always preached at the end of every show or recording He ever done. My Dad would almost lose his breath laughing so hard. So many great memories listening & seeing Mr Jerry Clowers live. Thanks so much for bringing his resting place to view. I really appreciate it.

[@randallfowler8377]

I absolutely loved him. I still do. Thank you for doing this for him.. My mom died in 1992, and I can still hear her laughing at his stories..

[@jasonsheppard5778]

Rip to you r mom bro

[@thomasmalloryevans2932]

I visited his gravesite last November - his wife Homerline and his brother Sonny are buried right there, as well - he’s right at the treeline at the far north end of East Fork Cemetery

[@ritasullivan5355]

I loved his stories and I loved the fact he didn't cuss and the stories were hilarious.

[@taratupa73]

Jerry Clower was one of the few people who ever made me truly laugh. And I still laugh at his stories to this day. My favorite of his stories was the one about Marcel And The Beer Joint. Rest In Peace, Jerry Clower.

[@dennisschick2450]

Great memories from Jerry. In the mid 70's I worked for Sutherland Lumber Company & Jerry did commercials for Sutherlands. A few of us got to go to lunch with him when he visted our store & the stories he told us. I believe the story that you mentioned about the truck & horn & mule was The Plantin Buggle. Dammit Ray was another good one. He made you laugh without any profanity. Thx for the memories.

[@davidhorsley1149]

Might be the middle of nowhere to most, but he's "Home", in more ways than one. #1, He's resting in the soil of the place he called/made his home. And, #2, As a Christian, he's finally home with his Lord. Jerry Clower was a country man, a man's, man, a southern gentleman, but above all of that, he was a Godly man. He never had to resort to profanity or vulgarity or innuendo to get a laugh. He just knew how to relate a story so everyone could see the humor in it. The impressive part was, take note of his head stone. Nothing over the top, garrish, or saying look at me. A truly humble but great man, an American treasure, Jerry Clower!

[@Last_Chance.]

I wish someone would do a documentary on Jerry

[@bentonmckinney5454]

I heard Jerry Clower speak at First Baptist Church-Houston and he did a great job blending his brand of humor and the gospel- Rest in peace God bless your family my condolences

[@lisaw1972]

Good clean humor...love it ♥️

[@Mattea68]

always loved Jerry, he could be funny and humorous w/o being dirty and putting anyone down. I know his widow passed away a few yrs back, i think her name was Homerline. Remember hearing him on Sunday Morning after church on the radio program Country Crossroads with the late Bill Mack

[@dorismartin2434]

I love your channel! Jerry was born the same year as my daddy and they came up hard during the depression. I remember my daddy saying I don’t see how city folks made it. We lived off the land and hunted and grew crops. I am sure Jerry came up the same way.

[@tartsonawire]

My Dad loved Jerry Clower. We listened to a tape of his over and over again. My favorite story was Tater's Moped, and the cameo he did in Ray Steven's "Southern Air"

[@jennifercampbell2030]

My favorite story was Ole Brumey Wasn’t Treein’ A Coon” about Marcel being late for school and was telling the teacher why he was late . He said they were having trouble with weasels getting their chickens . He said that they heard a ruckus coming from the hen house about 3 that morning , so Papa got up out of bed and woke him up and told him the weasels were getting their chickens again . He said that Papa wore a nightgown to bed and nothing else , so when he grabbed his shotgun , thumb cocked it and eased around the corner of the hen house , my best coon dog Ole Brumey came up behind him , cold nosed him under that nightgown , he said I’ve been picking chickens ever since!😂😂

[@thomastommy1192]

Jerry was one of my favorite entertainers as a kid growing up. I still listen to his videos on KZbin. That is a sad graveyard. Why would they bury Jerry in such a sad lonesome place? Someone needs to clean up those grave markers. It's sad they were ignored like that. Cool video thanks for sharing.

[@dirtroad_360]

I listened to jerry as a child and loved his stories! One of my favorites was the coon hunts he went on and his famous football story of playing Alabama

[@coachsmith4856]

While serving in the army I met one of the Ledbetter family members in the army serving his country. In basic training and I ask about his family and we just had a good time laughing others just look at us like we were crazy if only they knew about his family history.

[@darylbrogdon7142]

The old timers here where I live in the Florida panhandle used to tell stories about Jerry when he used to come here to sell seeds at the farmers co-op. He came here a lot doing shows at the national guard armory and school gyms. I saw him a couple of times before he made it big

[@ronniehallmark1278]

I still listen to him regularly Rest in peace Jerry.

[@ronaldowhitten6529]

Yes Sir thank you for making me feel good of thinking about the past . I was asked by my grandma to go with her to see him in Warren Arkansas, what a great time thanks for the wake up of a past memory!!!

[@BackRoads1]

Thank you for watching. I’m glad you enjoyed the video.

[@jimmydavis6254]

Was he at the Pink Tomato festival?

[@stolnpckup]

Thanks for sharing. I still listen to him today. I have him on spotify.

[@bobdc13]

I met Clower once when he came to Lubbock Texas to be on the Big Ed radio show...He was featured on that radio show many times over the years...

[@tammywilliams7381]

Marcel Ledbetter 🤣 Jerry was a hoot. I loved hearing his stories. ❤️

[@jeremyheath6178]

Thanks for sharing 🙏🏻 💜

[@sallykohorst8803]

I never heard of him but he was very funny. Thanks for sharing.

[@rustloversgarage]

This video brings back a lot of memories for me. I too grew up listing and watching Jerry....my how times have changed. The clip you have here was shot from a high school not far from me. (Chase High School / Rutherford County, NC) He was larger than life for many of us, so I find his unassuming grave site somewhat interesting. But that is the way he would wanted, as he has moved on to his reward he so often spoke of while on stage. Loved the video!!

[@BackRoads1]

Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@vickiwatson3284]

Great story. I love how you tell your stories. Great listening to them. Thanks again for sharing 😊

[@perijetton9275]

My dad’s favorite! I haven’t heard his name in years! Thank you!

[@allenreddin9885]

I enjoyed the visit to Jerry's grave , keep up the great work ! ! ! and God Bless you .

[@BackRoads1]

Thank you

[@ironwolf9402]

I had a chance to meet him in 78 but by luck, my football team was playing for the county championship. I was pretty tore up on what to do when the sponsor of the shows wife, my teacher had told him I was his greatest fan he sent word by her that he understood ( she had made it where I could meet him after the show but I didn’t know that at the time). And he had told her if he was in the same situation he wouldn’t come see him his self. And for us to go out and win that game which we did. The next day at school she gave me my ticket stub and a couple of things Mr. Clower had signed for me. I don’t think there’s been a week go by after that day, that when I heard he was going to be on tv or the radio that I’ve missed. Love your channel.

[@BackRoads1]

That’s an awesome story. Thanks for watching and the kind words!

[@thomasdill88]

Awesome job,Glad to see you putting a picture and video of the person you are giving respect to. Thank You

[@tric5122]

A truck I had for years had the old satellite trial on it, and it was never taken off. I used to listen to the comedy channels all the time, and Jeff and Larry's had Jerry Clower on it a lot, but since it was the trial, I never knew who it was, just that I laughed hysterically at when he was on. I eventually was able to figure it out bc my wife's newer car, that we used for travel, we had a full subscription put in. I've been down a rabbit hole of his since. His records are great, his "Ain't God Great" album was just as good as his others.

[@brandonclaytor3678]

I am from outside of Richmond Virginia. My dad played numerous albums of Jerry Clower when I was young coming up as a child. Back then I didn't know what to think of it because I didn't understand it. The past 10 years or so from today I've learned to love and get such an understanding of Jerry Clowers witty, humorous, forever more laughterous(probably as Jerry clower would say himself) way did he displayed and showed to everybody. I always take time to use reference of what Jerry Clower puts out there to different people that I know, because it just hits home to me in a way to describe certain things to certain people. I want to thank you personally for doing what you do I have done some research on Jerry myself and this helps me further that research. Jerry Clower was a humorous and he definitely knew how to connect with people. I can't help but to have things kind of hit home with how he says them certain things. Thank you for your time, your services and all the extra you put in between to do this for everybody!!

[@frenchbullielove]

I appreciate you taking the time to doing this. Jeremy Flower’s was a wonderful story teller. My family so enjoyed listening to him. Good memories.

Looove Jerry. What a blessing he has been to my life. Nice to see the "high ground".

[@ramonparson7695]

One of my all time favorites I saw him live When I was a kid he was something else all my best Ramon from Athens Georgia

[@slkgeothermal]

I grew up around Tuscaloosa Ala and heard Jerry's comedy on the radio many times but never saw him perform live. In 1997 my 5 year old son and I were traveling from Dallas to my parents home in Northport Ala. We were tired and getting late so we stopped at a hotel in Meridian, Miss. The next morning we were at the front desk with several others who were checking out. I was wearing casual clothes and was barefoot. From behind me I heard that unmistakable voice say " My that's a fine looking boy and your Daddy ain't got no shoes" we talked for a few minutes while waiting in line for our turn. I will never forget that surprise meeting and my son who is 30 yrs old still remembers him as well. So happy I got to meet the man in person because he was the character in his stories not so actor.

[@nickroberts-xf7oq]

He was born in 1926, the year Harry Houdini died. 🌹 I met Jerry in Knoxville TN when I was a kid. 😊 JC Penny had brought him in for their grand opening at West Town Mall. He mentions his first 🏈 football game being against the VOLS in Knoxville.

You would think he had a fancier grave being so popular,my wife dad has some of his albums and recordings, I haven't been able to find any full lengthy shows..copyright issues I guess. Thanks for showing this.

He was a down home person. Never put on airs!

My neighbor worked for Jerry Clower at Mississippi Chemical Company. My neighbor had pumpkins for sale in his yard and Jerry Clower stood in our yard and said if I was Hugh Woolley's neighbor I would make him get rid of those stinking pimpkins.

[@georgeherndon8300]

[@1978garfield]

Did you find any Ledbetters in the cemetery? Jerry was one of the greats and a class act. From agricultural chemical salesman to stand up comic. If they made a movie about his life no one would believe it.

I am and have been a Jerry clower fan most of my life. It would have great if you would have walked around and found some of the Ledbetter that I would imagine are buried there too. I used to work with a man who grew up in Macomb and knew some of the Ledbetter family Jerry talked about.
