Not sure what to say?

To this day, when I find myself in the Harvard Club, New York Athletic Club or Central Synagogue, memories of Gerry unexpectedly percolate. May his memory continue to be deservedly blessed. Becky and Ike Herschkopf

It speaks volumes about Jerry that, almost a decade later, we who knew him still revere his memory. Thank you for reminding us. Ike and Becky Herschkopf

I loved Jerry and miss and think about him all the time. I am so glad I got to know him for the short time I worked with him.

Can it really be eight years later? We knew Jerry all too briefly, but his sterling character was such a rarity that we continue to remember him vividly and fondly. We remain honored to have been his friend. Becky and Ike Herschkopf

Dear Jane, Don, Judy, Sam and Susan
We are very sorry for your loss. Gerry lived both a full and long life. We should all be so blessed. Sincerely, Sally Ann & Donna

Gerry contacted us when he noticed my name in an article that I had written. We had delightful dinners at The 21 Club and the NYAC. We've never met a classier couple. We stayed in touch for a while, but sadly, not long enough. We will miss them. With respect and love, Becky and Ike Herschkopf

Gerry contacted us 10 years ago because of our identical names. We had delightful dinners with him and Elaine at the 21 club and NYAC. We've never met a classier couple. We stayed in touch for a while, but sadly not long enough. We will miss him. With great respect and love, Ike & Becky Herschkopf

Dear Jane, Don, and Sam - I am very sorry for your loss and I send you love, blessings, and condolences.
