Stepdad Jack loved working on cars, I remember how he taught me how to change the oil in my first car VW 1968 Bug in the year 1977 after that he helped me keep up the maintenance of all my future cars and always was helpful with most motor projects... He and my mother were married for 47 years and they loved each other, which I observed them forgiving each other for their weaknesses on a daily bases and that is True Love ...? Jack was hit hard by my mothers passing 1/11/19 But how he has joined her God Bless you both Rest In Peace Never to be forgotten

I met Jack for the first time in July 2019 when I helped my close friend, his daughter Janie, move from Colorado. I regret that I only had a few months to know him as he had some good anecdotes about San Pedro. My sincere condolences to all his family and friends.
