What a shocker. How sad. Jerry seemed like an old school promoter, learning so much about the business with his Speedway Motorsports years. I remember him at Gas City regularly taking the microphone during intermissions and having trivia and thanking the fans. I walked up to him at Eldora and thanked him for his Gas City and Eldora days. I thanked him at an Eldora HARF night and he was honored that fans were using the discount. He told me he wanted to have more family nights at Eldora, not just special event races. He didn't know me, but he sure found time to talk racing. He'll be missed. Godspeed Gentleman Jerry. 🏁
