I worked midnights at Metro with Jack for only a short time. In that time I got to know a "cool"guy.
If I was yaking too much he'd say "less talk.. more work" then He'd come by later with one if his jokes..
We shared the same Birthday. Come next Sunday I'll have one for you Jack.
You will be missed by many.
May you rest in peace.

My deepest sympathy goes out to Jacks family during this difficult time. I worked with him for many years at A&P and still shop there. I will always remember him as the most humble, respectful, caring gentleman he was. Truly the best co-worker anyone could ask for. May you rest in peace my friend.

Rest in peace, Jack

-In Memory of Jack-
A blanket of peace for a hard-working man
An early retirement you didn't plan
You worked extra hours with one thought-your pension
What good does it do in this other dimension?
You've gone to become a permanent guest
In an ever so-silent place of rest
No joy, no laughter, no errands to tend
But still living on in the heart of a friend.
My sincerest sympathies to Jack's family + friends-
Be strong and of good courage.
A former co-worker, Ingrid Kanally
