Maurice Stanley at Jerry's Barber Shop

Jerry's Barber Shop was established by our cousin Jerry Stephenson and his wife Shirley in Lubbock, Texas.  I don't know the exact time frame, but I'm guessing in the mid 1980s.  Cousin Maurice Stanley joined them in working there for many years and upon Jerry and Shirley's retirement, Maurice purchased the establishment from them.  Jerry and Shirley continued to work there occasionally for several years after retirement.  There were about seven barbers working at the shop. In about 2014 the Shop started accepting donations for the Honor Flight to take veterans to Washington DC to visit all of the memorials.  More information about the Honor Flights is down below.  In 2023 and with Maurice being 77 years old he sold the Shop to one of the other barbers and still continues to work there as of this writing-November 2024.  Scroll down.




Sponsor of the Month

As most, if not all of you know, our Flight benefiting the local Heroes of the South Plains is entirely funded by donations from individuals and businesses in our local community. This year we want to highlight those businesses that have gone above and beyond in making this Flight a reality.

We could not think of a better business to kick off this highlighting event than our sponsor of over 10 YEARS, Jerry's Barbershop! Not one to take the credit, Jerry's Barbershop donates over $6000 annually due entirely to the Honor Flight donation box and the "customers of Jerry's Barber Shop adding up to over $62,983.00 since 2014! 

The donation box is tended by Maurice Stanly, an Army Veteran, a veteran barber, and an Honor Flight Guardian for many a deserving veteran on our Flights. Maurice is a staunch supporter of the Honor Flight and is never shy to show his support or send a deserving veteran our way to sign up for the Flight. We would not be where we are today without the support of Maurice, Jerry's Barbershop, and the Customers of Jerry's Barbershop, and we want to say THANK YOU for all that you have done and continue to do for us! 

For those who have not had the chance to visit Jerry's, the atmosphere is one of community and patriotism with the occasional political banter, of which everyone is welcome. As a THANK YOU to the customers of Jerry's Barbershop and to ensure the continuation of a one of a kind barbershop here in Lubbock, we at the Honor Flight ask that you stop by this month and show your support and give them a shot at being your new barbershop of choice!
