He graduated from Wabasso High School in 1957, after which he entered the Army Reserves for 6 years, beginning with basic training and monthly drill duty. Shortly after that he entered Mankato Vocational School with a goal to work in an auto body shop. In due time he realized his heart was in farming working alongside with his father Albert Lamprecht and brother Rollie Lamprecht.
He married Barbara Mell July 19, 1975 at St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church. Living in their own home on the home place Gerry continued doing crop farming along with an egg operation.
Over the years he continued growing recognition with awards for corn & bean yields. He took pride and meticulous care to maintain picture perfect fields, mowing road ditches and the area around the home place buildings.
