Jerry restera à jamais une figure marquante dans nos vies. En vacances à New York avec ma famille, je repense à ma toute première visite dans cette ville, aux côtés de ma mère, j´avais 12 ans. Mes pensées sincères vont à sa famille et à ses proches. Son souvenir demeure vivant.

Oh my goodness; the memories I hold dear of Jerry Cohen! I was the Chef on his private yacht for several years where I was able to travel extensively in the US and I will never forget my summer in the Mediterranean aboard The William I. Truly wonderful memories! I learned many things in his employ and had the utmost respect for him. My condolences to Michael and Robin, his wife and daughter as well.

A sad day for those who ever had an opportunity to interface with this real estate genius. I never took for granted the lessons I learned from Jerry. Difficult to follow, almost impossible to please. Nonetheless, a tremendous individual. Someone who shaped an entire industry with his unbridled knowledge, candor, and wit.
I can still hear his guiding comments ringing in my head.
Rest in peace old friend.
