Wilson Roosevelt Jerman, a former White House butler who worked under 11 US Presidents, has died after contracting coronavirus. He was 91 years old.
His granddaughter, Shanta Taylor Gay, told CNN on Thursday Jerman died on May 16.
“He was authentic. He was a quiet but stern man. Very giving, never fussed or complained. Always said he lived a blessed life,” she said in an interview.
Gay said the family is “taking it day by day” in light of her grandfather’s death.
