She now joins her first husband, Charles Graham Bollinger, her sweet mother, Helen Cade, and her father, D.E. McCoy, who are absent from the body and present with the Lord. Although we are all so thankful and happy that she is with our Savior Jesus, we will miss her greatly. She has been a lighthouse for all of us - the hands and feet of Jesus. She gave us wisdom and kindness, love and acceptance, pure goodness and beauty beyond mere words. She poured herself out every moment she lived in service to Jesus, her family, and many dear friends. Her beautiful radiant smile would always light up the room wherever she was. All who knew her were blessed and encouraged by her. She wanted most of all to bring glory to the Lord God's name, no matter the cost to herself. The weaker she became physically, the more the Lord gave her His joy and strength. One the last Bible verses the Lord impressed on her heart was Nehemiah 8:10: "The joy of the Lord is my strength." His grace once again proved to be all sufficient. She died as she lived, praising our Savior Jesus. Jerry Jean became a Christian at the tender age of seven. She attended Hardin-Simmons University where she was voted Princess on the Homecoming Court and President of the Cowgirls service organization her senior year. What a beauty! She was a youth leader at First Baptist Church of Dallas, where she met and married her sweetheart Charles Graham Bollinger. Together they raised a family and brought glory to the Lord in all that they did. She taught various ladies Bible studies through the years and helped people learn about salvation through Jesus Christ and the Christian faith. She also taught English, History, and Reading at various Christian schools for many years. From 1987 to 2001, she taught the 5th and 6th grades at Castle Hills First Baptist School. She lost her sweet first husband to cancer in July of 1996. It was a sad time for all. We never thought she could every remarry. She was too happily married to Graham. But we all underestimated our Lord. On May 4, 2002, she married her "Resurrection Man" Jack Taylor and lived almost two glorious years together traveling the country getting to tell everyone about Jesus - their first love. She was not only proud to be Jack's wife, but also proud and beaming to stand beside him in his ministry for the Lord as Vice President of Dimensions Ministries. Her beloved husband, Jack, is the founder and President. On January 19, Jerry suffered a massive stroke while on a cruise on the South Pacific. She spent two weeks in the hospital at Papeete, Tahiti before being brought to San Antonio on February 5. She is survived by her husband, Jack Taylor; children, Ty and Charlene Bollinger, Ron Bollinger, Cherith and Dru Moore, Tim Taylor and Michelle, Tammy Snell and Bill; grandchildren, Brianna and Bryce Bollinger, Baby Moore - due in July, Blake and Brice Taylor, Kimber Snell, Tim Snell, Chris Snell and Clayton Snell; mother-in-law, Newell Bollinger; brothers, Tim McCoy and Susan, Ron McCoy and Cathy, John Cade and Patti; sister, Ernestine Clark and Lloyd; and numerous nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and cousins. If she could speak to you today, she would say: "Look to Me (Jesus), and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth" (Isaiah 45:22). She would want to see you repent and believe and receive eternal life with the Father in heaven through Jesus our only Savior and God. "You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all of your heart." (Jeremiah 29:19) "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you." (Matthew 7:7) She would say that Jesus will not be found anywhere but the Bible. Search the Scriptures, taste and see that the Lord is good! She wants to see you there with her in heaven.  Are you ready? Her hope is built on nothing less than Jesus blood and righteousness. She'll dare not trust the sweetest frame, but wholly lean on Jesus name. In lieu of flowers, we ask any love gifts be sent to Dimensions Ministries, designated to the Jerry Taylor Memorial Fund, P.O. Box 189, Melbourne, FL 32902-0189, (321-984-8355), which Jerry Jean poured out her life these past couple years serving Jesus - bringing His good news of the gospel to the people! "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." (Matthew 28:19-20)

Jerry Jean Bollinger Taylor, age 62, went to be with the Lord Jesus on February 15, 2004. She was born on July 5, 1941 in Artesia, New Mexico to Helen and David Ernest McCoy.

We Love You Mom - Grammy!
