Jack Newkirk Memoriam
Jack F. Newkirk
Two years have passed without your smile, your laughter and of course, your phone calls to "discuss" Gator football and basketball. Two years without being able to seek your insight to solve our "life problems." Two years without our best friend, our Lunch Bunch coordinator, our Jefferson friends organizer, our decorator, landscaper, contractor, baby-sitter, coach and confidant. We know that you are continuing to share with everyone up there your greatest gift left to us- always thinking how to bring Joy to other people's lives no matter how difficult your own challenges are! Each day without you is just another day for us to practice what you have taught us so well! You have given so much happiness and have left us with a life purpose to honor. We miss you every day!

I was shocked to learn of his death. He was a dear friend in elementary school, Junior and Senior high school. I will always remember our senior year at Jefferson. We used to make funny faces at each other in trigonometry class. I remember being caught a few times by our trig teacher and I nearly got in trouble. I am sure he is telling everyone in Heaven about our face-making activities at Jefferson. Jack you will be missed. See you on the other side. Anthony (Doc) Fernandez
