Jene Galvin, a friend of Springer’s and spokesman for the family, described him as “irreplaceable”. “Jerry’s ability to connect with people was at the heart of his success in everything he tried whether that was politics, broadcasting or just joking with people on the street who wanted a photo or a word,” he said.
