    He made Portland his home and continued community work decades after his playing days.

    Jerome was the epidemy of a Portland Trail Blazer.

    So sad, No doubt he's in a better place.

    NO! Jerome was everything being a trailblazer embodies. So unfortunate, condolences to his family.

    You would think "Oh, it's just an athlete, how can you be emotional about it?"

    It's what he meant to this city, how he tirelessly gave back to this city with his play, his work, his giving, his community efforts, his smile, and on and on.

    He meant more than a guy who could put a ball through a hoop. He was a genuine person.

    This sucks, man.

    I just thought there would be a blurb with a "more to come" on a local news website, oregon live, nba.com or blazers.com. Not saying it's fake, but surprised by the slowness.

    I literally just saw him at blitz Ladd doing a show with Jaynes and terry porter. This sucks so much. Jerome was a great guy.
