Cheryl, sorry to hear about Jack's passing. He was such a wonderful person, Gloria and I really liked him as well as the Members of the USS Howard W Gilmore Association. We all enjoyed his stories and sense of humor. I first met you folks at the HW Gilmore reunion in Corpus Christie , TX in 2018 and looked forward to visiting with you at every reinion since . We will keep him in our prayers and may he rest in peace.
