Shirley, Jackie and family I am so saddened to learn of Jacks passing. It was my privilege have met and dealt with Jack those years at Petro Can. The level of honesty and service I encountered in our first dealings remained constant over the years. It was an honour and pleasure to have known Jack, I trust you will find some comfort in knowing he was well regarded by so many.
