Jack Gillespie

A great man, who is sorely missed.

Jack was our real estate broker, neighbor and friend for many years when we lived in Manhattan Beach. After moving away, we continued to receive Christmas cards from Jack every year. Jack´s honesty, integrity and love of family were without question. Our condolences to Maureen, Claire and Maggie. We, too, will miss him.

We were so sad to hear the news. Jack was one of the kindest individuals we have ever known. He was thoughtful, compassionate, and just an all around wonderful human being. The world is worse off without him, but better because of him. He was a true icon of the South Bay and he was my first experience in buying a new home, which was such a smooth and pleasant endeavor. Thank you, Jack, for everything you've given to the community and the world. Rest in peace. You will be missed.

I´m SO sorry to hear this! Jack was the BEST!! My parents loved him as their neighbor & friend! I wish I knew about the services but I´m sure it was a great celebration of his life. Love Colleen Bateman

I just found out Jack has passed, so sorry. I worked with Jack back in the day at Pan Am, we had some good times. Jack helped me buy my home, 45 years ago, i still live there, he is one of the good guys, RIP. Gary Sergi

Here they are talking about prophets (I think true followers also) and how to recognize the good from the bad. God's Word goes on to say what those fruits are:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and...

Jack was my grandparents, Ken and Lillian Browning, neighbor for many years before my grandparents sold their Laural Avenue house and moved to Hawaii. He and Maureen were wonderful neighbors and so good to my grandparents. Because of Jack, he negotiated a wonderful price on their house to which it allowed them to buy their retirement home on the Big Island of Hawaii where they lived for many years. Jack never seemed to forget a face and would always say hello to my parents or myself when I...
