Richard "Dick" Jergesen, 78, passed away Tuesday, July 6, 2021 of natural causes at home in his favorite recliner with Mary Satterfield at his side.
Dick was born May 15, 1943 in Bremerton, WA, son of Pete and Pauline (Kuper) Jergesen. He was raised in Harlem, MT, where he started his family. In 1979, he moved to Lewistown to fulfill his dream of owning his own business. It was there he met Mary Satterfield, his partner in life.
