Red Sox fans had an opportunity to pay their respects to former player and legendary broadcaster Jerry Remy on Thursday at a public wake in Waltham.
Remy died on Oct. 30 after a 13-year battle with cancer.
Remy’s family and the Red Sox opened up the funeral home to the public from 2-8 p.m., and fans poured in to bid Remy farewell.
“He’s unlike any other broadcaster,” 60-year-old Red Sox fan John Leger told The Boston Globe. “He was genuine, sincere, and you sense that he’s a fan like us.
