I am so sorry to hear the news. My thoughts go out to Mary Ann, Anderson and Jim - the sweet boys I once babysat. Much love to you all during this time. Jack was a very caring, funny and happy person surrounded by a great family.

I knew Jack because of the lawyers in his law practice. I have had the honor to know his son Jim much better. Jim is much like his father. His sense of adventure, his active life style, his belief in justice his passion for life; he passed all those along to Jim. The Gould family is in my prayers.
