As kids, we grew up on boats, then we went to Florida. We could argue over the smallest things but we loved each other as brothers. I will truly miss you, my Gator brother. To the rest of the family, I extend my deepest sympathy to all. Call me anytime.

Dear Mike and family,

I am so sorry for your loss. I really got to know Jerry when I sold his house on the golf course. He was a brilliant guy with a great sense of humor. We had alot of laughs and a lot of talks together. I also know from other family and friends that he was a generous man giving to the Unversity of Florida to honor the memory of others who had passed.
I will always have fond memories of Jerry. God bless you all.

To all those who had the pleasure of knowing Jerry. You don't know it until it hits you hard but you've heard it a million times. IF only I could goodbye.An overwhelming sadness set in when I saw the picture in the paper.....very telling of a guy who beneath it all, and there was alot.......was a truly loving, warm hearted one -of-a-kind gem........who wasnt easy to love but no less lovable, too brilliant for his own good, who judge not by his choices.....he was pure in form and challenged everything leaving nothing untouched....theres not enough space to even begin the story of jerome faber, jr. its just one of those things...you had to be there.....allthough gone on one level, that guy will always" be" and for that I am grateful.
