I'm very sad to hear about Jerome's passing. His finance and family will be included in my prayers.

Just so everybody knows Jerome died of a massive heart attack as he slept. He had posted 6 days earlier he was concerned his BP went up to 190/120. Despite 4 pages of replies trying to help him he passed away. Being a stroke victim I understand the dangers of high BP and to him to go to the hospital, this is a warning for all of us, here was the thread he went by the name of Mister Bone:

RIP Jerome.

RIP Jerome.

I remember reading the thread on the Alley about his BP and then saw the post about his passing. I was hoping it was a prank.

This is Jerome's sister. Thank you all for your kind words about my brother. We are all devastated beyond belief, and I just can't bring myself to read his posts about not having felt good. My heart is broken...

Hi Christine,
first condolences. Know that Jerome made a lot of friends on the Viper boards. Here and at Viperalley. He will be greatly missed, but it cannot compare to your loss. Prayers are with your family.

Hi Christine, this is Karen. I met you many years ago when I came to Flemington. I've been trying to get in touch with you or Mary all day.
I feel so badly for you and Steve and especially your mom. You have all been on mind all day.

RIP Jerome.

Originally from Princeton up near his family. We enjoyed his comments throughout the time he shared with everyone. I wish more from NJ would comment.

Regards,

Plaw

For all you folks here at VCA I am asking that you consider making a donation that will be sent to Jeromes mother. I sent a beautiful arrangement of flowers that the family received yesterday and signed the card from the Viper Community, although at that time I had only received contributions from the folks at Viper Alley.

Jerome did not have insurance so the financial burden is on his mother and it would be great to see the Viper Community step up and help out. For those of you who post on both the alley and here my screen name is SaltLifeGirl on the Alley.

If you would like to make paypal or check gift please send me a PM and I will send you the information.

Thank you all for paying it forward and letting this be your random act of kindness for the day. I know Jeromes family will greatly appreciate your help.

I just heard the news and I am truly saddened.

Of all the people who deserve to live a long happy life; this man was one of them.

Its been years since I have talked with Jerome but I still remember those conversations well.

While his physical body failed him, his spiritual one was full of life.

RIP sir. You are now in a place where there is no pain or wanting.
