Jerry was a self-made man who studied and worked hard to make it to the top he definitely was one of the top in his field and loved by all I have known Jerry since I was 13 and although we’re not close in March him for all he accomplished I was proud to know him and to know that he was from South Philly I was a nice smile and wave whenever we saw him particular for years and summer point at Bubba Macs Our prayers are with him and his family and he will always be remembered sincerely Angelo Scolieri from South Philadelphia
