I am truly sorry to hear the news of Jerry's passing. As he would say he knew me since I was a baby, grew up in the auctions with him and my dad bidding! I had the honor of knowing him and grateful for his friendship. Even gave him a ride to NY from Virginia when the airport got snowed in where he gave me a scare or two lol didn't know he drove so fast. He gifted my baby girl a crib last year on one of my last visits to his place. He was a great man and will be missed at the auctions! Deep condolences to his wife and children from the Baux family.

To the Grossfeld Family: My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there's a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring.
