Ray Kerrison, The Post's longtime horse racing columnist, dead at 92
as both a news columnist and a horse racing columnist, covering 32 Kentucky Derbys and countless other Triple Crown races, died Sunday after a brief illness. He was 92 years old.
“Even in his retirement, he was so amazed by his journey,” said his son Damien. “He was born and raised in the Australian bush. So to come out of there and become so successful in the New York market was a wonderful accomplishment. I know he was very much admired by his colleagues. They all have a soft spot for him.”
“One of the nicest people you could find, unusual for the newspaper business,” said Eric Fettmann, who edited his news columns beginning in 1994. “He was persuasive without being strident or dogmatic. And he was a joy to edit — not that his column needed much editing. He was a simple yet elegant writer.”
A wake will be held Tuesday from 5-9 p.m. at Blackley Funeral Home, 809 Broad Ave., Ridgefield, N.J. The funeral Mass is Wednesday at 9:30 a.m. at the Church of St. Matthew, 555 Prospect Ave., Ridgefield.

Highland Park parade shooting: Father of alleged gunman posts bond and gets out of jail'Robert Crimo Jr., again the father, took a reckless and unjustified risk when he decided on Dec. 16, 2019, to sign his son's application for a firearm owner's ID, or FOID card. At the time he signed the application, his son was 19 and could not — let me say that again — could not get a FOID card, and because of that, could not legally purchase a firearm without his father's assistance in that application process,' Lake County officials said.
