What wonderful man, worked with him almost his entire career at OCG. Also worked with Merle and thought the world of him as well. My fondest memory of Jerry was playing basketball in the loading dock at OC, nearly every day for years on our lunch hour. He was a very good player and I´m heartbroken to hear about his passing for all concerned.
