Wow!! I Am Still Shocked That I Will Not Run Into Him In This World Anymore. He Always Lit Up With A Big Smile/Hug When We Ran Into Each Other And We Talked. When We First Met Years Ago, He Sat Next To Me In A Bible Class And He Asked Me To See My Bible. He Would Ask Others Also The Same Thing Years After... Last Great Memory Of Jerome Was At My Buddy's House A Few Years Ago. Just The Three Of Us With Great Fellowship And Prayer.

Pastor Jerome will be deeply missed by all those whose lives he touched.
Cristina da Costa adored the Pastor. He made such an impact on her
Life. He always made sure that she had transportation to the Church from
Her group home. She always talks about the day the Pastor took her
Bowling. She is in Florida now with her father who is very I'll. Cristina and
Her mother send their love and sympathy to the Pastors family. We truly
Love and adore all of you! Betty Polland ( Cristina's) mother.

I am hurt to find out this way about a great friend and music teacher. It hurt even more because I missed his home going "Funeral". He was one of the best friend and teacher of music I ever had. To the family may God bring you all through this great storm. R.I.P. my good friend and formal teacher what a great Lost for this world. Peace! Bishop Clayton Duckworth sr.

Once in a while you meet a man who walks right behind Jesus. Jerome was that kind of man who truly loved and served with the heart of Christ. I only hope I can come close to his walk with the Lord. You are home now.

The Waukesha community lost a great advocate for the poor and lonely when Jerome left us for eternal glory with the Lord. He did so much more than most people ever knew not only in our community but also in third world countries. His smiling, kind and loving presence will be missed by all who knew and loved him.

Jerome was one of the finest Christian gentleman I ever knew. He as a man of integrity, and loved God with all his heart. He encouraged me at a crucial time in my life, and his repeated visits to us and our son during his eight week stay in the hospital back in 2002 was so much appreciated. My brother, look forward to seeing you again soon!

March 29, 2014
