Gerald D.
Witt
July 17, 1963 – December 14, 2024
Gerald D. Witt, age, 61, of Iberia, passed away on Saturday, December 14, 2024, at Lake Regional Health System in Osage Beach. He was born in Tuscumbia, on July 17, 1963, son of the late Jerry Dale and Ruth Geneva (Robinett) Witt. On March 10, 1990, in Brumley, Gerald was united in marriage to Margarete "Maggie" LeAnn Colvin, who survives at their home.
Gerald owned and operated Witt Construction, framing countless homes and structures throughout the years. His passion was for the outdoors where he enjoyed hunting, fishing, gun shoots, and tending to his cattle farm. Other than his love for fried chicken, Gerald's greatest joy in life was his family, especially his grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his parents, and his son, Jared Ross Witt.
