I was heartbroken when I found out of his passing. It was a pleasure taking care of Jerome and getting to know all about him and his life with his wife, kids, and grandkids. He will truly be missed. 

I'm sorry to hear of Jerry's passing. I worked for him at the Art Institute of Chicago in the late nineties and learned a lot from him. He was very bright and knowledgeable, but at the same time modest and accessible. He had great affection for his family and spoke of them often. My heart goes out to them. Jerry was a wonderful guy.

We’re so sorry for your loss. 

We met your dad when he started working for the Art Institute.  He and Allan shared an office for over 5 years, which provided an opportunity to share life’s journeys and a lot of laughs.  

The bond that was forged lasted long after the AIC. Over the years we enjoyed many get together with your parents always getting the family update.  We will miss their warmth and laughter and remember them fondly.

You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

Robb, Michael and Cary,

I'm so sorry for your loss. I consider myself lucky to have known your parents, and to have grown up with our extended "Carriage Way family". Please know you are all in my thoughts.

Your friend,

To the Goldstein Family,

So sorry for your loss.  So many wonderful memories of your parents and you boys growing up.  We were lucky to be part of the Carriageway Family.

Your mom and dad are in our thoughts and prayers.

Hugs,

Virginia and Roger Freichels

I have many wonderful memories of Jerry and Karen and the fun times we shared together.  Almost from the first time we met many years ago at the Pi Lams Fraternity house, Joe and I felt an instant connection.  Though we weren't blood relatives, we all agreed that it felt like we truly were family.  Spending time visiting with them at family events, going out to eat at their favorite restaurants, having them over for lunch in our Gazebo and making sure there was something chocolate for Jerry, and long conversations with Karen on the phone, are all special memories that I will always treasure.  Joe and I were very fortunate to have had them in our lives.  They will be missed more than words can say.

• So sorry to all the Goldstein family for your Loss. My husband worked with Jerry at Sears for many years. They traveled together and on a couple of trips the wives and kids went too. Karen and I shared many interests as we both lived in Buffalo Grove. Those were the "good old days".  God Bless all of you, Nancy Swartz

I treasured my friendship and family connection for years with your parents. I will miss my visits and attendance at family celebrations.   Jerry treasured his four boys, his daughter in laws, and his many grandchildren. Loved updating me on all of their journeys through life. It was difficult watching his illness progress and rob him of his vitality. His memory will be a blessing for all who loved and treasured him.

Jerome "Jerry" or"Duck" Goldstein became my locker mate in 1951 or 1952 at Luella Grammar School. We stayed together through Bowen High School, U of I Navy Pier and Roosevelt University. We both graduated with  a major in Accounting. Yet spent most of our high school and college days playing hockey which was metal game with a rink and players that would spin around.. Playing at each other's home so no one had the home advantage. We stood up at each other's wedding. When it was time to select our Bar Mitzvah day he chose first and took my birthday tho I was Bar Mitzvah on my parent's anniversary. During the last ten years, we spoke often and would have lunch more so when he no longer could not drive.  The memories never leave but may fade away. I missed talking and seeing him once he could no longer stay at home.

Love you Duck
