Jack G. Lipton

Jack and I were dear and beloved friends for well over 50 years. I am deeply saddened by his untimely and tragic passing. I share the sorrow that Kathleen and his family bear, and the grief I feel with his death will last until the day of mine. Farewell old chum. "May flights of angels sing thee to thy rest."

Jack, it was a pleasure drumming for The Penetrators in the early 80s, we had a blast. Thank you for your friendship over these many years since. You were always a righteous dude. I will think of you often.

I am so sorry to hear the sad news of Jack's passing and wish sincere condolences to his family and friends and others. I knew him as a neighbor briefly when he first moved in and he walked down to meet my husband and I. He was friendly and always kept his house looking nice. I saw most days he suffered just walking to the mailbox. He enjoyed sports and music I heard. I knew he had two grown sons he told us. I did not know he had 2 grandkids and he graduated from JD and Syracuse...

I knew Jack to be the kindest, authentic man. He was a very special person to my son John and Lisa and the girls. When speaking to him you felt he really was listening and was interested in what you would share. He will be very missed. Rest in peace Jack. Donna Williams

Jerry and Dode,we are so very sorry for your loss.You will be in our prayers. Bill and Barb Cross

Jack was a friend since high school at JD. Over fifty years. He was a kind and affable man, always with a big distinctive laugh and a "hey, how you doing?" He meant it, too-he was always genuinely interested in you... I join his family, friends, and the Syracuse music community in mourning his untimely passing. He will truly be missed.

My sincerest condolences to Jacks family and partner. I have many fond memories of Jack from high school days and beyond. Jack was very good at ping pong and we had many spirited games. Jack was always in for basketball and football games. So much fun!! Jack certainly had a love for music way back then so it was no surprise when he and Eliott got together and created the Penetrators. Not my style of music, but I was very happy for Jack. He was a very caring person and a good...
