I loved Jack very much. He was always charming, warm, kind, gracious, spirited, intelligent, engaging, and very dear to my heart. They don't make men like Jack any more. I miss him daily, but I am so grateful and thankful for the time and the memories that I have of this man!

Jack was my uncle and his spirit will be missed. He was always full of such wonderful energy, interesting adventures and certainly a model for active living. I am sure he will be missed by all those that he touched.
God Bless Jack!
