I will always remember fondly my days spent in the basement of ABC Carpet searching through boxes of files for information about the infamous "Coco Foam" and Jerry's kindness and appreciation for the legal assistance provided. "Here's $5, kid, get some lunch". Forty years later, the image of his barking orders and his kind eyes still makes me smile.
