My condolences. I met Jerry back in the 70's. He was part of a group of Ruth and Marshall Goldberg, along with Ruby and Belle. May his memory be a blessing. Just found pictures of him and the gang from my parents' photos. Ruth died in 2010 and Marshall died in2017.

Bev gave me the sad news, Judy. I met Jerry only once, I think, at Maureen's house. He seemed like a friendly, quiet fellow. Not enough of those people in this world.
