Gerald "JC" Edwin Cunningham III's Obituary
Gerald Edwin Cunningham
Gerald Edwin Cunningham III (JC) was born on February 28, 1977 to Holly Kerr and Gerald E. Cunningham II. As the first grandchild, he was the pride and joy of the family. Grandma’s little Pooh Bear.
JC graduated from Cyprus High School in 1995. He served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Memphis, Tennessee Mission).
JC grew up to be a very handsome young man with a passion for the performing arts. He made his debut in the Napoleon Dynamite deleted scenes (2004), The First Vampire (2004), and Unrest (2006). Along with many plays.
He was a dare devil and always took risks. He could always be found jumping off everything. He loved sports and played them growing up. He especially loved the BYU Cougars. JC was famous for his teasing nature. As the self-proclaimed family comedian, we enjoyed many laughs together. He loved his little cousins, Evie and Scotlyn. They were his little best friends and could always get him to play tea parties and watch princess movies.
JC passed away and went home to his loving Heavenly Father on December 8, 2021. He is preceded in death by his Grandma Ivy, Aunt Robin, Uncle Quinn and other loving relatives. He is survived by his mother (Holly Kerr Densley), father (Gerald Cunningham) and many aunts, uncles and cousins.
He was cremated and will be laid to rest in Payson, Utah with his beloved Grandmother Ivy. A graveside will be held in honor of his memory at 1:00 pm on Wednesday, December 29, 2021 at the Payson City Cemetery.
We thank everyone who has shown our family love and support at this time.
