Jerome Sydney Goodman, 84, passed away
peacefully in Boca Raton, Florida, with his
family by his side. He leaves behind his be-
loved wife of 62 years, Maxine, and his four
daughters and sons-in-law: Sheri (Steve)
Winokur, Amy (Jeffrey) Harrow, Karen
(Scott) Tarte, and Lynn (Jay) Roseman. He
was also an adored grandfather of 13 and a
great-grandfather of two: Jason (Philip),
Samantha (Mike), Dana (Patrick), Ross
(Amirah), Jordyn (Jesse), Evan, Grant, Brett,
James, Dean, Ryann, Kaity, Jack, Charley
Paige, and Holden Rome. He was a cher-
ished brother to his only sister Joan and her
husband Gerry Lehrfeld. Jerry was born in
Philadelphia, and he spent his entire life in
and around the city and its suburbs. He
graduated from Philadelphia College of Phar-
macy and Sciences, now called University of
the Sciences. Decades later, he received an
honorary doctorate from his alma mater.

Jerry was trained as a pharmacist but be-
came an accomplished entrepreneur and
business leader. He founded Saveway Phar-
macies, a pioneer in the discount pharmacy
business which was sold to Rite Aid Corpora-
tion. He later served as Chairman, President,
and CEO of First People’s Bank of New Jer-
sey, one of the state’s largest regional banks.

Additionally, he founded Cherry Hill Travel,
which later became Travel One and was sold
to American Express, and he also developed
commercial and residential real estate. Jerry
served on many boards, including US Health-
care, Aetna, and that of his alma mater,
PCP&S. His philanthropic interests included
the Abramson Cancer Center at the Uni-
versity of Pennsylvania, where he and his
family endowed a faculty chair, as well as
Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and
PCP&S, where a freshman dorm bears his
name. But the pride he took in his substan-
tial business accomplishments paled in com-
parison to the pride he took in his large fam-
ily. Jerry, known as Pop to many around him,
got his greatest pleasure spending time with
his children and grandchildren. He was a
constant presence in their lives. His impact
on his children, his sons-in-law, his grand-
children, and so many others around him has
been immeasurable. He will be greatly
missed, but he will never be forgotten.
