My deepest sympathy and sincere condolences to your family in this time of sorrow. I flew as Jack's co-pilot on many occasions and it was always a pleasurable experience. He was a perfect gentleman, wise mentor, outstanding airman, and uniquely interesting conversationalist. I know for a fact he loved his family deeply as he wove you into any discussion.
May peace be with you during this time of profound grief.

I flew with Jack on the DC-8 as his flight engineer during my early days with Delta. He was a good captain and very professional. I wish him a peaceful journey on his flight West. Heartfelt condolences to the Wynn family.
