    Sad news. He was one of the truly good guys. And younger than me.

    Wow I'm all choked up right now... I just can't believe it. I expected he duckworth death because of his weight problems, but Kersey looked damn healthy

    Right? I'm getting the same feelings I was when I heard about Robin Williams. Just out of nowhere. This sucks. Shock.

    Jerome was the first autograph I ever got. I waited in line at the thriftway on Olson for over an hour. I still have the autographed card somewhere.

    I always knew I loved Jerome. I was a teenager when they were making playoff runs in the 90s. But I was caught off guard at how shocked and hurt I was learning about this and thus how much I love the Jerome and the Blazers. Rip City has had our hearts ripped out tonight.

    Seemed like he was at every Blazer event for the last five years and always in a good mood. RIP.
