Jerry West is Still the Best Every and will always be my Hero! We all miss him but know he is is a Great Place. ~RIP~ and You will never be Forgotten! ...........coach

One of the greatest players of all time. Known as "Mr. Clutch" he was absolutely incredible to watch. Thanks for all the memories!

What I´ve learned from Jerry is that success comes in many ways he lost a lot of nba finals but he is a legend and I think the nba should retire his number league wide in honor

My brother and I watched the Lakers during playoffs in the 1970s. I am currently reading Jerry's autobiography West to West. May God bless his family at this difficult time. Know there are many people thinking of Jerry's family and the Lakers organization at this difficult time. Remarkable team and man who worked with legends such as Pat Riley, Wilt Chamberlain, Walt Frazier, Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant.

A perfect example of how everyone should live their life. Thank You Jerry West. Not just for being an iconic basketball player; but for also being an iconic human being. May You Rest In Peace. Condolences to anyone saddened by his passing. To TRULY Honor him; Lets Be Kind ALL The Time.

Sending condolences to the West family and friends during this difficult time. May Almighty God comfort you and give you all the strength to cope with the grief and sorrow, that you will face in the coming days, months and years. I hope the fond memories of your dear loved one always be cherished.

An incredible basketball player, such an outstanding career, on and off the court. He was a talented player and he was great at identifying talent as well, most notably Kobe Bryant. Sincere condolences to the West family, so very sorry for your loss. May God be with you all in your time of loss.
