JEREMY BLACK

I worked with Jerry in DC for a while, what a great person. I am terribly sorry for his family and for our nation as he was a tremendous contributor to our society.

During the two years of Peace Corps volunteer in Compris Islands, all the population in Sima, his village knew him. Gentil man, calm, teacher of English at the secondary Scholl. Sima doesn't forget you.

My condolences to Jeremy's family. Such a tragic, senseless, sad loss I learned about this evening online from, LB. So so sorry. Greg Sherrow (@GregSherrow1 on Twitter) July 16, 2021, Friday

On Sunday, I offered a public prayer for you, dear Cathy, and your family during our morning service at St. Mark´s Capitol Hill. I asked that you be comforted and surrounded by love. Each day since beloved Jerry died, I ask in the Buddhist tradition that your suffering be lessened and lifted. ( Thankfully, St. Mark´s has been committed to action against gun violence and annually hosts national gatherings of activists. ) All my love, Louise

A man who was created and raised in the spirit and love of God, who dedicated his life to helping others across the world, how we lost you to such a tragic event is beyond comprehension. A gentle kind man who was a wonderful husband, father, son, brother, friend, coworker, and humanitarian --and my brother in law who impressed me with his culinary skills, gift of music and guitar, watching him with his wife and sons, his athleticism, and his kind spirit...I was so lucky to have known him, and...

We're so saddened for the tragic loss of Cathy's husband and father of Myles and Alex. We send our heartfelt condolences and pray for the comfort for the family during this difficult time.

I wish I could be there to commemorate Jeremy´s life. We were PCV´s together in the Comoros. I am so saddened by this loss and gun violence altogether! I am sending love and healing to Jeremy´s family and loved ones.
