JACK CLARE NICHELSON

Valued, respected, talented and conscientious person was Jack . . . never forgotten. Joe Sabatella

Time moves on but fond memories of good friends last forever.

I've known Jack for 65 years as a friend and Sigma Chi brother. Great memories of a '56 trip to ROAD AMERICA in my '52 MGTD. May he now rest in peace

Jack was one of the most conscientious teachers who inspired his students . . all of them. He was a valued and respected colleague during my years as dean of the College of Fine Arts. Our many conversations regarding the teaching and evaluation of student work after I returned to the classroom studio provided insights to Jack's depth of talent and sensitivities. His imaginative constructions offered viewers an extremely personal and unique opportunity to a magical world.

The memory...

Jack was a dear friend on Palmetto in 1955. I often sit at my desk in Chatham, MA and enjoy the 4 drawings of vintage cars hanging there. I'd always hoped to have more of his works. Remember him as a fastidious" brother" who was always there to lend a helping hand.

I so enjoyed a long ago friendship with Jack as a Sigma Chi brother, a neighbor on Palmetto in Coconut Grove, a witness to his artistic flare, an observer of the care given his sporty car.
I so regret that I have been unable to learn of Jack's later life.
Godspeed,
