Wendy and family: George and I are so sorry to learn of Jerome's death. You are in our prayers. I never learned to call him Burt as his high school classmate. He was always Jerome to me, and such a gentleman. He was the best story teller and I so enjoyed when he would come to school and included me in his telling of the 'fun' and various pranks he would do with classmates and his friends. He had this great chuckle and biggest smile, checking to see if I would be too surprised, as he would tell of his adventures. At the All-Class reunion in June, he once again included me in one of his stories, of 'good times' he had as told to LuVerne Finne. Now looking back, George and I are so glad we sat with you and Jerome for dinner at reunion. I have a special memory of meeting Jerome and your family on the elevator at Daytons when we went were at one of the auditorium shows. I so appreciated hearing him say we should get together more often than reunions since we lived here in the cities. What a nice man and friend. God bless you as you celebrate his life.;
