Not sure what to say?

A Texas tax law legend. Nobody could discuss a tax topic like Jack. He loved to do so and his wit and good nature will long be remembered and likely never replicated. Rest in Peace Jack and God bless you and your family.

I want to offer my sincere condolences to the entire family upon learning of the news regarding the passing of Jack. He was a really good person and always working hard for the better good. Rest in peace. Donald C.

Jack Eckels had a wit that was unmatched, and was such a great attorney. He was friend to so many, and Diane, I will miss him, as will so many others. A favorite memory was when I would see Diane and Jack riding their bicycles on some Sundays....Jack Eckels made a difference in so many people's lives.

I truly enjoyed all of Jack Eckels' stories during his presentations at the Chamberlain Hrdlicka continuing professional education seminars. He was very witty and interesting.

Jack was such a nice person, and a very good friend. I´ll miss him at our celebration dinners where Jack was a brilliant conversationalist. We had lots of fun over the years. Margaret Hansen
