    He's the only Blazer I've ever met, and he was a total class act. Damn.

    Tragic. He was easily the Blazer I've just seen out and about in Portland the most in the last couple decades.

    I'm not ready to lose my childhood heroes yet. First Duck, now Mercy ... FUCK ... Not only was he one of my favorite Blazers ever, he was a great guy who loved the city. I can't right now ...

    Jerome was a Blazer lifer! Loyal loveable guy. His candle burned bright for 52 years. A proud symbol of Blazer history. I hope they show a dedication on the jumbotron at the next homegame

    He never had anyone say a bad word about him and seemed to really enjoy traveling around the state meeting fans, terrible news.

    That's gonna be a tough one to watch. This came out of nowhere. I'm sure the Blazers will have a very classy memorial for him at the next game. He was truly the embodiment of what Blazer fans love about their players as both a player and a person.

    I'm sure the team will wear patches for the rest of the season too.

    The net is kind of a weird place sometimes. Jerome's wikipedia page has already been updated, and oregonlive nor kgw have a post about it.
