Jerry was one of the last links to a Golden Era of sports coverage in Detroit and Michigan.

I like to tell the story of how, when Jerry heard me say that his book “Year of the Tiger” was one of my prized possessions, he asked me to bring it to him in the press box before a Michigan football game. He autographed it for me and shared some backstories to some of the things he wrote about. I wasn’t even a journalist--just a quote runner. But he was exceptionally gracious and generous with his time. He was the ultimate professional and gentleman.
