Obituary: Edward Frederick ‘Fred’ Jury, 83, formerly of New Haven

Edward Frederick “Fred” Jury, 83, of Louisville, died Saturday, May 22, 2021. He was a native of New Haven, the late William Henry and Mary Cecilia Jury. He served honorably in the U.S. Army in Germany in the late 50s and later attended EKU. He married Aggie Bowling in 1963, and together they raised four children. He owned several liquor stores, most recently Karem’s Bait & Beverage in Jeffersontown. He loved to hunt and fish and brag about his recent catch. He was passionate about UK sports, especially after a victory. His happy place was on the porch at his Rough River lake house. His most treasured joy was seeing his eight grandchildren have success in the classroom, on the field, in the pool, on the stage, or simply learning how to ride a bike. He was a longtime parishioner of St. Agnes.
