Aunt Ju, Jack was special to me. I always enjoyed his tinkering and his mild-mannered, but enthusiastic bent toward technical things. So sorry to see him go, but believe me, he won't be forgotten.

My sincere condolences to you. Jack and I filmed many Liberty games next to one another and was a great guy. We always used to joke about how many coaches he has out lasted and tried to figure out how many wins he had while filming at Liberty. He will certainly be missed.

To Julie and Your Family - My deepest condolences. I was so fortunate to have Jack as my friend. I really enjoyed talking to him and reminiscing about the good days of filming 16mm football games. I was honored when he asked me to film for him as I always considered him as my mentor. I will miss his stories, his smile, and his kindness. My thoughts and prayers to you and your family.

To all the Guidon family - we are so shocked and saddened to learn of Jack's passing. When we moved into our house on Quarter Mile Road, Jack was there and stayed on for over 20 years doing our yard work, checking on our well being, and generally being a good friend a nice guy. He even befriended my parents when they would visit from Illinois and would often take time for a cup of coffee with them. I especially remember his kindnesses to my father, who was beginning to show the start of Alzheimer's disease during his last visit. Jack was wonderful to him. May his Memory be Eternal. If there is grass to be mowed in Heaven, I am sure Jack is checking that out.

Guidon Family,
The news of Jack's death was a shock. For 50 years he was a "behind the scenes" member, but a very valuable member of Moravian College Greyhound football. He will be greatly missed. My thoughts & prayers are with all of you.
