    Fitting tribute, I go all the way back to when Jerry was on WCAM in Camden, NJ and I lived in Manayunk on Baker Street. I'd have him on the car radio parked at the curb and everybody was happy listening to the Geater. RIP

    I remember the Geater with the heater, the boss with the hot sauce. Yep, that was back in South Philadelphia a very long time ago. Beautiful tribute to Jerry.

    Beautiful send off for a legend. This song reminds me so much of my Dad who I lost three years ago. He was truly my buddy.

    It was really true that he was one the Bandstand dancers. I thought it was a myth but it was true!!! There's footage of him being interviewed by Dick Clark. He called himself The Geater even back then he was a kid.

    Just saw a comment below sayimg he was interviewed on American Bandtand by Dick Clark. Found it, watched it---a small World. I would never have heard of him if I was not listening to Mummers on youtube FYi---2nd song played in this video was the absolute most popular WWII song ever!

    I met Jerry eons ago when I was just a teen. I was babysitting for a couple in a high-rise apartment complex in Philly. He was sitting around the pool and was cordial to the silly teen, interrupting his privacy. I was star-struck for a while over him. "Happy trails...".
