She was a pioneer of personality, humor, 65 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: and human connection, a template for every dj who would 66 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: dare to be more than a voice behind a microphone. 67 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 1: And there was a joke of the day.

Amen 86 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,839 Speaker 1: partnership is a living lesson in devotion, decades shared laughter, 87 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: support and unspoken understanding. Together they created a family rooted 88 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 1: in integrity, courage, and love. He mentions my sister and 89 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,359 Speaker 1: watch his daughter Lisa rise to the rank of police 90 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 1: lieutenant with the Cincinna Police Department brought a quiet, radiant 91 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: pride to Jerry that was almost tangible. Her courage and 92 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 1: dedication and integrity were reflections of the values he lived 93 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: by and instilled in his family. And he did mention me. 94 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: He mentioned listener lunch specifically and some very kind words Jack, 95 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: and I'm not going to pat myself on the back 96 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: by reading them, but I appreciate you recognize me, and 97 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: the shoes that I cannot fill are still sitting here 98 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 1: beneath the board.
