Not sure what to say?

Dear Ruth and family,
I just heard about Jack's passing from an art friend. My heart breaks for each of you. Three of his watercolors hang in the entryway of our condo. They have had such special meaning to me because of the subjects but also because I got to know the wonderful artist who painted them. I am so sad for all of you, as you grieve the loss of your husband, father and grandfather. I am so sorry I wasn't there to honor and celebrate Jack's life and comfort you. With...

Linda, thinking of you at this difficult and sad time. Sincere sympathies to you and your family.

We are so sorry to hear of Jack's passing. We are so glad we had the opportunity to find a distant relative and get to know you both. Thoughts and prayers are with you.
Dick and Brenda Carl

Carla and family

Ruth, I am saddened to hear of Jack's passing. My sympathy and prayers go out to your entire family.

Sorry to here of the loss of your dad. You have my sincere sympathy.

Our family is saddened to hear then loss of such a warm and talented man. He worked with our father, Bill Stanley at Jacqua and knew our mother over the years who was also fond of him. My sisters son has been collecting a lot of his artwork from the boat advertising years. His artwork is spectacular and displays his love for life and nature.

Wendy and Jim I'm so sorry to hear of Jack's passing. He was a true gentleman and a wonderful artist. I loved having one of his paintings in my office for many years and when he came in, he'd point out some little thing in the picture that I hadn't seen before. He will be missed.
