My name is Tom Tait. When I returned in the summer of 1993 to move my law practice from Rochester to St. Paul, I rented office space I shared with Jerry in the basement of the Mendes Family Dentist Clinic on Snelling Avenue in Highland Park. Jerry was incredibly helpful and a great conversationalist to be around at a time that I knew few people in the profession. Jerry also referred clients to me to help me getting my practice going. We shared that office space for 2 or 3 years. Jerry was a wonderful person and I am saddened to hear that he is gone. I wish I would have known when he passed so that I could have attended his celebration of life.
