Episode 20

This episode is in honor and memory of my great friend, Jerry Young.

Jerry died this month, December 2021, from Covid.

We met at Lexington Toastmasters in 1979 and enjoyed many adventures, lunches, and conversations together over these forty-two years.

Jerry was the first guest on this podcast with Episode #1 posted on February 8, 2020. It was about storytelling.

Jerry and I taped this conversation in January 2018.

It’s about his life before the accident that blinded him, lessons learned, and a life well-lived.

Jerry was a great friend and inspiration to me. I miss him.

I have other recordings, videos, and photographs of Jerry that I’ll put on a special Remembering Jerry Young page on this website soon.

Thanks for listening. Now go call a friend.
