I had the honor of getting to know Jerry when he sat in on my history class at Webster University 10 or 15 years ago (who's counting?). Running into him anywhere just completely brightened my day. He was a true mentsch. I'll miss him. May his memory be blessing!

Joan, Betty & I send our warmest condolences to you and your family. I had no idea that Jerry was ill, so was stunned to read the sad news this morning. Our thought and prayer are with you all in this most difficult time.

I never met a finer person than Jerry. He helped my family through very difficult times and was just so patient and understanding of our situation. I don't know what we would have done without his kindness and wise counsel, for almost fifty years. He inspired me to become a lawyer. and was truly a great man.
Please accept my condolences.
Sincerely,
Rich Cohen
