Not sure what to say?

Dan and I will really miss our alley conversations with Jack. We are so sorry we did not make it to his service. The alley will never be the same and I will miss him! He always made me laugh!

I saw jack often at the athletic club. Always a smile and a funny comment or two. Genuine nice man!

I was honored to care for Jack and even though he left our unit my thoughts had been with him and his wonderful family who were by his side fighting this with him. My prayers go out to you all.

What a true gift he was to so many people - his loving and generous spirit and his sense of humor were generously shared with one and all - he will be very much missed - truly our loss and heaven's gain.

God bless my friend -

Whenever I think of Jack, a smile comes to my face. I know he is rejoicing in the presence of our Lord and Savior.

All of DPS Athletics adored Captain Hook! He would always make our days at the stadium so much more enjoyable. What a great man! We will miss that beautiful laugh and all of the great stories.

Jack was a great guy. We had many short talks about Italy in 1945. He being in the Air Force and I was in the 10th Mtn. Div., when we were students at Denver Univ.
Not to forget Jack's father who was also a great guy. All 3 of us were with the Denver Public Schools.
Wonderful family.
