To Jack,
I was blessed to have had you as my friend. You would make me laugh at the OG and the wonderful emails you would send would brighten my day. I believe people are brought in your life in moments when you need them and I think the yrs I have know you you brought me inspiration and laughter when I needed it the most and for that I am grateful. This world has lost a gentle and kind man and I am going to miss you deeply. Say hello to Marilynn and my son Stephen. Love , Chris

This lifetime has lost a truly amazing and wonderful man .Marilynn & Jack would come to OG and make me laugh and we would talk and I realized true gentlemen still existed. They always made me feel good when they came in .There grace and elegance was always refreshing. Your family were truly blessed to have had this wonderful couple and they will be missed deeply .

Dear Comegys family,

Our most fond memories of Jack are the blessings we offer at this time of immense sadness for your loss.

Our father, Glenn, shares his deep love for your father with each of you.

So many years, so many happy days there are to relate when your mother and dad brightened our hearts.

I hope that our families will have a chance to share the coming holiday season. You all are always a sweet welcome wherever we are.

In the spirit of family, we...

Comegys girls, It will be a long,long time before i have the pleasure of meeting another fine couple like your parents.While i have been in the restaurant business for over twenty years i can't remember a finer couple. Fridays at Monjunis will never be the same. I always had wonderful conversations with your parents and your mom and i laughed until we cried almost every Friday.Again I will truly miss them but hope you will continue you visits.

Johnette - Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Scotty,
I am so sorry about the death of your Dad. It is not easy losing your parents. I still, to this day, miss my parents, especially my Mom. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
Take care

SCOTTY /
I remember the fun we had showing your Father and Mother Chicago. We laughed at the drivers and ate delicious steaks at Lawrys. Your Father was so proud that you were studying to be a Lawyer.
On behalf of Butterscotch and Lemon we all share your sadness.

Dear Daughters,
As you cared for, honored, and cherished your Daddy, your Holy Father was pleased. Your Daddy was blessed with each of you and your love for him. May the Holy Spirit of God comfort your tears and your heart during this time of loss.
Your Daddy now lives in the "Sweet By and By".....
Love and prayers.

Dear Jack - in all those years, and especially in our teens, I never read a word of rebellion or disrespect from your daughter (unlike myself!), only loving adoration. When we met in 1981, you and Marilyn were the best hosts. You took David off with you on man's business at the office, and I stayed for shopping trips with Marilyn. You were the essence of a benign patriarch.

For Scotty, Kennon and...
