Jerry Sedam had hired me as his research assistant in 1986 at Brown Brothers Harriman. Working with him was a great blessing for me because of his professional competence, his great sense of humor and honesty. After he had left Brown Brothers, I often turned to him for advice and support which he gave to me generously. I consider it a great honor to have known this extraordinary gentleman.

Jerry hired me in 1975 (just a kid) and molded me into a professional. I was truly blessed to have worked with Jerry for 11 years as his Exec. Secretary and Office Nabager. He was my best friend and confidant and needless to say one of the brightest and funniest people I have had the pleasure to work with. I will cherish my memories of him forever.
