Eileen, Brad, and Karen,
Donna and I are sad about the news about Jack's passing. You are in our thoughts and prayers. We will always remember the great times we had together, including work at SMMA, outings at the ski club in NH, fishing trips on the Rosey S, etc. Jack was a great person and loved by all that met him. God Bless you all.

Eileen, I know that no words can express how sorry I am to hear the sad news. Jack was my first boss at Syska and Hennessey and my inspiration to do a good job and have some fun even under stressful times. I will miss him deeply. My thoughts and prayers are with you and Karen and Brad and their families at this sad time.
