Not sure what to say?

So Sorry to hear of your death, Jack! I met you when I was a very young man and you made an enormous impression on me. I thought of you today because I stumbled across your card, stashed away many years ago. I've borrowed from the phrases on that card many times and I will never forget discovering the secret of one shoe seen in the middle of the road. Warrior, hero and trusted friend, I'll never forget you. Thank you for your friendship.

Dearest Jack, I have missed you so much this past year+. I so often catch myself thinking.."Oh, I must remember to let Jack know". It is always with a heavy heart that I remember you are no longer physically with us. But then my heart soars when I think of where you are and am so grateful you are finally pain-free and at peace. Mama and Daddy must be so happy to have you with them. I love and miss you all so much. Sent you a birthday toast on the 30th. It has given me peace to again...

I did not know this, till now, but I have used many of Jack's recipes and suggestions in my own winemaking since 1999, ge will be greatly missed. :( So sorry for your loss

My friend Jack who I never knew personally. You've contributed to my life in the many wines I've made with your recipes and infused with your knowledge and wisdom. Thank you for that and for the times you took to answer questions from me, a complete stranger, online. I have dandelion and peach wines in process thanks to your generosity and sharing, lifting a glass to you today. God bless your family.

What a life this man lived! I never met him, but he was the real deal. RIP, Mr. Jack.

I'm one of your countless friends, and winemaking students, that you probably never realized you had Jack. Followed your blog and website for many years. So sorry to hear of your passing, you were a true renaissance man.

Rest In Peace Jack your service to our nation I admire and Jack, my wines will never be the same, when I lift a glass I will think of you. God bless your family.

Rest in Peace Jack, I will miss you.

His online wine making knowledge and recipes will be GREATLY missed.
