We are so sorry to learn of Jerry's untimely passing. We've known him and Lucy for a very long time and have enjoyed many visits with them in various locations over the years, most recently in their beautiful Florida home, where they were the consummate hosts, even treating us to dinner at their lovely country club. We will always cherish the memories of our wonderful, happy times together. Deepest condolences to Lucy and also to Gregory and Steven and their families. Rest in peace, our precious friend.
