Upon graduation he attended the University of Florida on a full athletic and academic scholarship to continue his basketball career as a Florida Gator. This would prove to be a lifelong obsession as he went on to a Bull Gator Booster for the majority of his life. He obtained his degree with a major in Business Administration and minored in Accounting. He was a wiz with numbers!

Upon retirement from the clerk of courts, he ran for Chief Financial Officer for the state of Florida. He sold half ownership of a racehorse to pay the fee. He won the primary election where he spent just $225.00, of which was his own money, for his campaign because he refused to accept a dime from even friends and family, but went on to lose the general election by a mere 1000 votes. Jerry was known for his maverick spirit, idealism and indignation for the people. The amazing story of his life and legacy could go on for pages. He is survived by his four children, Jon Curtis Gates, Patrick Gates and his wife Jennifer Wright, Ashley Gates, and Chad Gates all whom he quoted to be his “magic”; very beloved grandchildren Johonna Tran and Paislynn Gates; sister Joey Gates Walters and numerous nieces and nephews.
