When Did Jerry Hicks Die
Jerry, the husband of Esther Hicks, croaked (Abraham’s choice of wording for dying because there is no death) on November 18th, 2011.
How Old Was Jerry Hicks When He Died?
Jerry was 84 when he transitioned.
How Did Jerry Die?
Jerry Hicks died due to cancer. Jerry’s illness was originally reported to be from a spider bite, but cancer was discovered as the doctors did further testing. Despite his medical treatment, Jerry’s health declined, leading to his death. His transition was announced by his wife, Esther Hicks, through their shared website.
Dear, dear Friends,
Our sweet Jerry made his transition into Nonphysical last Friday. How sweet the Vortex is feeling to him today!
Jerry said to me when we came together over 30 years ago that given the difference in our ages that it was likely “that I will cut out on you early,” to which I replied, “I don’t mind.” His joy of life and continual new discovery of purpose kept his life feeling fresh and we shared such joyous eagerness for life.
Over the years, Abraham has consistently insisted that there is no death. Again and again they have reminded us that there is only life and more life and more life. It has taken me some time to understand this, and I honestly must say I have not yet fully come to terms with it, but I do believe that in what we are calling Jerry’s death he is discovering the next logical step of life that Abraham has always been talking about. And at times I am catching a glimpse of the bigness of what Jerry is feeling and while I am still pretty mad at him for not sticking around longer to surprise and delight me in all the ways he has been doing throughout our 30 years together I accept fully that the next logical step of joyous life for Jerry was to be found in his re-emergence into Nonphysical.
Since 1985 it has been Jerry and Esther and Abraham and I believe with everything that I am that that has not changed. I know that Jerry will continue to be the third powerful point of the triad of Energy that makes up the Abraham experience and I am certain that his new vantage point will be, as it has always been, of advantage to us all.
I know for sure that Jerry will help me, in time, release my own personal resistance to physical death, because I will not be able to maintain that resistance and also play easily with him. And my desire to continue not only my Abraham experience but also my Jerry experience I am certain he will be the catalyst to help me do what Abraham has been trying to help us all do all along.
Once again, Jerry is out there leading the way for me. But the difference this time is that I must find the way. I am not there yet, but it is my absolute promise to myself that I will find the way, because it is the most natural thing in the world to do and because Jerry has provided for me the reason to do it.
I am eager about what is ahead and while I cannot begin to explain or even imagine the details of how it is all going to play out, I am certain that it will be fun.
I am such a fortunate girl, to have been able to play with Jerry and Abraham and all of you for so many wonderful years and I am so eager to continue doing more of the same for many more years to come. I feel certain right now that not only has nothing gone wrong, but things are going especially right.
It will be different, for sure, but it will also be very, very good.
I’m feeling such love for you all, and for Abraham and most of all for Jerry. And as I have said to him a thousand or more times through the years, “Well isn’t life just a kick in the pants?”
Love,
Esther
What Was / Is Jerry’s Roll with Abraham Hicks?
Jerry Hicks was a vital part of Abraham Hicks teachings. Together with his wife Esther, they formed a loving and dynamic duo. Jerry’s primary role was to ask questions, as he was filled with curiosity about life, spirituality, and our relationship with the universe. These questions provided the foundation for the conversations that Esther, channeling Abraham, would engage in.
In many ways, Jerry was the bridge between us – the regular folks with questions about life – and Abraham, the non-physical entities with profound wisdom to share. His down-to-earth approach made the teachings accessible and understandable, creating a friendly and welcoming environment for learners.
But his role didn’t stop there. Behind the scenes, Jerry was responsible for organizing meetings and workshops, creating an environment where people could come together and delve into the teachings. He ensured that the teachings reached those who were ready for them.
To put it simply, Jerry was the heart and driving force behind the physical aspect of Abraham Hicks. He played a crucial part in initiating the dialogue with Abraham and making these enlightening teachings available to all of us. His legacy continues to inspire and guide individuals in their spiritual journeys.
Even though Jerry Hicks croaked, according to the teachings of Abraham Hicks, his spirit is very much alive and active.
In the non-physical realm, Jerry continues to play a significant role in the Abraham Hicks work. Esther Hicks feels Jerry’s presence and believes he provides guidance and inspiration from the non-physical perspective. Jerry’s transition has added a new dimension to the teachings, providing a deeper understanding of life, death, and the continuity of consciousness.
Remember, in the teachings of Abraham Hicks, death is seen as a transition back to non-physical energy rather than an end. So, while Jerry is no longer with us physically, his spirit, according to Esther, continues to participate in the work they started together, offering wisdom and insight from his new vantage point.
This perspective encourages followers to see death as not an ending but a continuation of spiritual growth and exploration. It’s believed that Jerry continues to be an active part of the conversation, inspiring Esther and many followers of the Abraham Hicks teachings.
Why Does Abraham Use The Term Croaking Instead of Dying?
Abraham uses the term “croaking” to refer to the process we typically call death. It might sound a bit funny, but there’s a good reason for it.
They use this term to lighten the mood around the idea of death. In their view, death isn’t a sad or scary thing. It’s just a transition.
When we “croak,” according to Abraham, we’re not really dying. Instead, our spirit is moving from a physical body to a non-physical state. It’s like a journey our spirit goes on.
So, when Abraham says “croaking,” they mean the soul is going on its next adventure. It’s a joyful and natural part of our soul’s journey!
The Controversy Surrounding Jerry Hicks’ Death
The buzz around Jerry Hicks’ passing is a bit tricky. Some folks think that Jerry should have stopped his sickness or healed himself because he was a pro at teaching the law of attraction. They say his death shows that maybe these teachings aren’t all they’re cracked up to be.
But if you believe in the law of attraction and Abraham’s teachings, let’s look at it another way:
- Life is Full of Ups and Downs: Abraham says that all parts of life, the good and the tough, help us grow. It’s like learning what we like by experiencing what we don’t.
- Death is Not a Bad Thing: Abraham sees death differently. It’s not about losing or failing but moving on to a new, non-physical stage. So, Jerry’s passing could be his soul’s choice to keep growing.
- Manifesting Can Be Complicated: The law of attraction says that we attract what we think about. But our thoughts can be a jumble, with some we don’t even know we have. So, it’s not as simple as wanting health and always getting it.
- Well-being is More Than Health: Abraham talks about “unconditional well-being.” This means feeling good isn’t just about what’s happening outside us. Even when we’re sick, we can still find joy and alignment.
So, from a believer’s angle, Jerry’s passing isn’t a contradiction. It’s part of his soul’s journey, moving between physical and non-physical experiences. The aim is not to avoid tough times but to find happiness in any situation.

A workshop attendee asked about Jerry’s death, suggesting it involved resistance, contrary to Abraham’s teachings. Abraham clarified that there’s no right or wrong way to die. Jerry’s spirit was simply being called to the non-physical realm.
Jerry’s deep connection with Esther added complexity to his transition. But he always sought to understand the afterlife and uplift others, which he can do even better now.
Esther and Jerry found it hard to let go of their physical togetherness. This was their resistance. Now, Esther experiences a deeper bond with Jerry, feeling his influence in daily tasks and movements. She sees him not as physically absent, but as spiritually present in every aspect of her life.
Abraham’s main point: Everything, even death, is okay. It’s not about right or wrong but about the journey of life. When Jerry was transitioning, Esther chose joy over pain and now feels his energy all around. Jerry’s broader view is a touchstone for many, connecting them to the non-physical. He’s still here, just in a new form.
Abraham Talks About the Death of Jerry Hicks
I had the pleasure of watching this video in the streaming format while it was occurring. It was a magical couple of hours. I didn’t know how Esther would be fully connected to Abraham, but she did. In addition to Abraham, Jerry made an appearance on several occasions, as well. The way the event flowed helped me realize, over again, that there truly is no such thing as death. We live on eternally.

- The discussion started with the Hot Seater expressing gratitude towards Abraham for the guidance provided. They also mentioned their struggle with accountability and asked how they could improve it.
- Abraham responded by saying that the accountability we often look for in others is often a projection of our own feelings. This can create a barrier to our own spiritual and personal growth.
- The Hot Seater then raised a question about Jerry, Esther’s late husband. Abraham explained that while Esther might feel a sense of loss, that feeling is born from a sense of separation that doesn’t truly exist in the non-physical realm.
- Abraham expressed that the feelings of loss are normal but also unnecessary, reflecting that it’s part of being human. They also stressed that Esther’s frustration came from her feeling of separation from Jerry, which was eventually resolved as she accepted his transition.
- The conversation shifted to another Hot Seater who talked about the concept of birth and death. Abraham gave insights, saying that transitioning to the non-physical form is a return to a state of pure positive energy, offering a broader perspective and a different vantage point.
- Abraham then clarified that whether we are in physical or non-physical form, we always focus on the physical leading edge of thought. They used Jerry’s involvement with the workshop as an example to explain this concept further.
- The next Hot Seater expressed joy when they learned of Jerry’s transition, seeing it as a positive step and a sign of their understanding of Abraham’s teachings. They also mentioned several instances where they felt Jerry’s presence in their life, such as waking up at 5:55.
- Finally, the Hot Seater thanked Esther and Jerry for inspiring them to seek alignment with their own source energy and shared their excitement for more learning and expansion.
This video revolved around understanding accountability, dealing with loss, the concept of physical and non-physical forms, and the joy of aligning with our source energy. It’s a testament to the power of personal growth, spiritual learning, and the journey we all undertake in understanding the broader perspective of life.
