I am so saddened to read that Jerry Stern passed away recently. I was introduced to him in 1993 by my dear friend Bob Flowers when I was a much younger Texas state trial judge and was chair of the ABA trial judges ethics committee. I remember sending him my old 1955 Mutual Baseball Almanac that featured his beloved Brooklyn Dodgers world champion team, and I found him to be such a kind, delightful, honorable man. Like Bob Flowers, he towered above the legal profession in his integrity and professionalism. Rest In Peace, you good, good man.

Serving on the Commission on judicial Conduct for 17 years under Gerry's leadership was among the most satisfying and informative experiences I have ever had. He was fearless and undauntingly committed to truth and justice. I learned so much from those years. I'm deeply saddened by his passing. Ruth: My sincerest condolences. I know the pain you are enduring.

Marc and family,
My sincere condolences. Your dad sounded like an amazing man.
My mom was a judge who also fought a brave fight and ultimately passed. It´s an awful disease.
Kind Regards,
Desi

Gerry was a superb lawyer and a remarkable human being. He was an excellent professor of law at Pace University, a prolific author and a trusted and highly respected friend who will be sorely missed by many.
