Born in Newark, New Jersey, and raised in Nutley, Jerry was the cherished husband of Danielle and a devoted father to Devon, Ben, and Chris, who were not only his sons but his closest companions. His passing deeply affected not only his immediate family but also his brothers: James and Karen Chandler, Robert and Rita LePore, Patrick and Rose LePore, and his dear twin brother Joe and Rachel LePore, along with numerous nieces, nephews, and great-nieces and nephews, all of whom held a special place in Jerry’s heart.
Jerry’s life was a testament to following one’s passions. After graduating from Villanova University in 1987, he embarked on a journey that led him back to Hoboken and Chatham.

His determination was unwavering, even while battling a rare form of leukemia, dedicating much of his life to supporting others facing similar challenges. Remarkably, Jerry was blessed to live cancer-free for the past five years.
Beyond his dedication to yoga, Jerry was a fervent golfer, a devoted fan of Villanova basketball, and an unwavering supporter of the NY Knicks. However, above all, he was a family man, radiating joy, positivity, and warmth to everyone he encountered.
