The Village mourns the loss of Jerry Bundy, a cherished member of our board of directors for many years. Jerry was a passionate advocate for the welfare of children and an integral part of The Village, our Vernon-affiliate KIDSAFE CT, and numerous service organizations.
Jerry was a founding member of KIDSAFE CT in 1981, through which he transformed his love for automobiles into a positive impact for youth in Vernon and beyond. As the owner of Bundy Motors, Jerry created the Kars For Kids program to fix and re-sell cars to support KIDSAFE’s work. He also created the annual KIDSAFE CT Car Show fundraising event, which he grew significantly over the years to become one of the region’s leading charitable car shows. Through his dedication, he raised nearly $2 million to support countless youth and families.
His legacy of kindness and service will forever be remembered. Our hearts go out to Jerry’s family and all who had the pleasure of knowing him.
