Saturday, July 11th, will be a year since you left the physical world...and I miss holding your hand... Jami and I as well as many others feel your presence daily...Sometimes people can smell your cologne... Coco goes everywhere with us... This weekend we'll be planting Sunflowers (Jerry's favorite flower) and scattering your ashes in places you enjoyed. You are loved, my Lovey and will never be forgotten... #jerryepstein #violist #lovey #1year #remember #weloveyou #druified #msjamicakes #rebeccadru #family #wemissyou #lightbody #chooselove https://www.instagram.com/p/CCaAxa6AycW/?igshid=14yuz248b6f9f

Jerry LOVED Boxing. He loved watching it, he loved meeting people involved, he loved intelligence and strategy. One of the great joys in his life was his brother (in-law), Young Dick Tiger (King Charles Nwokolo from Nigeria). Tiger was a contender in the Olympics, winner in the Commonwealth Games and a very successful professional boxer who now focuses on working with up and coming talent and people who have a passion to box as their fitness routines at his Tiger Boxing Gym in Los Angeles, California. Tiger an inspiring example of one who suffered adversity in his early years and turned it into LOVE. Love of his profession, love of his family, love of his friends, kindness towards everyone. He makes you smile and lifts your heart. Tiger is pure joy. It would have given Jerry great pleasure to watch the videos, Tiger, his sister (in-law) Elizabeth and their son Emeka are now producing; boxing and entertainment.   https://bit.ly/bettertogetherTigerElizabeth Photos by Rebecca Dru Jerry Epstein’s Stories are all written and edited by Rebecca Dru @druified ©2019 Rebecca Dru All Rights Reserved . . . #LAPHIL #classicalmusic #Jerryepstein #violists #Musician #43yearsinthelaphil #mylifeasamusician #LOVE #chooseLOVE #bekind #heart #creativity #storytelling #documentary #recordkeeper #dailystory #instastory #History #druified #rebeccadruphotography #Tiger #youngDIcktiger #charlesNwokolo #nigerianboxer #TigerboxingGym #DickTIger #kingcharles #family #boxing #passionate (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAsmECUAMf4/?igshid=ys4sxll1tbtn

My Sweet Lovey LOVED to paint…especially with Jami…something they had done together since she was born…this was the last time he so joyfully lifted his paint brush and created his vision.  He so wanted the world to be a happy loving place… #jerryepstein #sweetman #painter #violist #create #lastpainting #happiness #hope #druified #rebeccadruphotography (at West Hollywood, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-3YS8_Af5V/?igshid=3kaiszn0y6sn

"Christian Zacharias was a wonderful pianist and conductor. He specialized in Mozart and I had a good time at the Hollywood Bowl after an LA PHIL rehearsal talking to him." (Aug. 6, 2008) . .

I just read about the immediate retirement of Vladimir Ashkenazy...shocking that it's so sudden... I hope he's okay. Jerry loved working with Vladimir Ashkenazy. I wish I could remember his stories...we never had a chance to work on this one before he passed on... I remember relishing the opportunity, early on in our marriage, to join Jerry at his LA PHIL rehearsals and be able to watch Ashkenazy's fingers at the piano up close. He was one of my favs...

Hard to believe it's been exactly 6 months since Jerry passed on....here's a collage of so many of the conductors he worked with over the years that I captured (except for a few by the late David Weiss). photos by the late David Weiss Photos by Rebecca Dru Jerry Epstein’s Stories are all co-written and edited by Rebecca Dru @druified ©2020 Rebecca Dru All Rights Reserved . #LAPHIL #classicalmusic #Jerryepstein #violists #Musician #43yearsinthelaphil #mylifeasamusician #LOVE #chooseLOVE #bekind #heart #message #creativity #storytelling #documentary #recordkeeper #dailystory #instastory #History #druified #rebeccadruphotography #Maestro #famousconductor #orchestraconductor https://www.instagram.com/p/B7Ol-7lgF9x/?igshid=n4pdyt02ay8h
