I worked with John from time to time at Joseph Smith, Ltd for many years and really thought a lot of him. Sending prayers of comfort to his family.

To Jack's family, We are so very sorry for your very sad loss. He is gone much too soon. Both my husband and I knew Jack, in Butler, in our teens. I am not surprised to read all the wonderful condolences , as Jack was always a gentleman, so nice, so kind, and so honest, and a hard worker. He worked at the Penn Theater on Butler's Main St. before he was even 16 yrs. old, looking so regal in his theater uniform. We knew he was a Marine, regal I'm sure, in yet another uniform. Jack was from Butler's South Side, as well as my husband. I guess it is fitting to say, those guys from South Side in those days "Rocked"! Our thoughts and prayers are with you all! Sincerely, Dave & Cindy (Snow) Kenyon & Family
