I was sorry to hear about Jerome being sick, and saddened to hear about his death. I did get to talk to him before his passing and told my cousin that I love him. Now I will be missing him. He was my connection to my fathers side of the family. His Mother was my Fathers niece. Jerome made it a point to keep that family tie. Sometimes it would be years before I saw him, but when we did, you knew we were family. "Hey cuz!" I can hear him now. Always a hug and a smile. Thank you Patrick for keeping me updated and letting me talk to him. My heart goes out to Christine, Barbara, Vernell and all of the family. RIP Cuz!
