So sorry to read the details. Looks like he died from cardiac arrest. It's sad to see so many of the Carpenter's inner circle pass on.
 
Wasn't Jerry instrumental in getting them their own TV specials? I think this was a good vehicle for Karen she always seemed happy on the shows and an ease before the camera.
 
Besides Carpenters, there was Frank Sinatra, John Denver, Bob Dylan (after Dylan saw ow Jerry managed Neil Diamond's HOT AUGUST NIGHT concert) and even Elvis...

We're in an era where quite a number of greats, among Mr. Weintraub, are sadly & quickly passing away...
