Jerome was born in Jersey City, New Jersey. He graduated from Ferris High School and was a star athlete in football, baseball, and track and field, attaining All-County Honors in football. After high school, Jerome attended Bridgeport University and received a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics. Upon his graduation from Bridgeport in 1964, Jerome pursued graduate studies at Stevens Institute of Technology in New Jersey and was employed by American Can Company and Kaiser Aluminum which brought him to Pleasanton, California in 1978. However, seeking new challenges in the professional world, Jerome opened his own business, Management Recruiters in 1986, with close friend, Mike Machi. He continued to work in the recruiting industry for 25 years until his death.
Jerome was passionate in all his endeavors, especially sports, history, and classical music. He was a proud member of the Knights of Columbus where he devoted time volunteering to support charitable events, such as Big Brother, Hope Hospice, and all food drives. He also loved tending his rose garden.
It was not uncommon for him to express pride in his Italian-American heritage or share fond memories of the downtown Jersey City neighborhood in which he was raised.
