JAMES J. DURFEE

Seeing that hurricane Irma was heading for Florida I decided to look up Jack and wish him luck with the storm. So sorry to hear of his passing. My father and Jack were friends in the army and I had the privilege of meeting Jack and his family in 2010, such a great guy, my condolences to his family.

Another great stunt performed by Jack: Some how he acquired a 40's Cadillac limosine. It is still the nicest car I was ever in. Nice leather seats, huge, would seat 10 comfortably, almost big enough to stand up in. Jack could make the thing backfire. Not just backfire but as loud as a howitzer. When he would drop us off at night he would trigger the backfire, waking up everyone within five hundred feet. If you were fortunate enough to be standing near the rear of the car you could see...

So so sorry for such a Great loss. Uncle Jack will forever live in our thoughts and hearts. he was such a remarkable person. It was an honor to call him my Uncle. God Bless Him

A great guy, sorry to hear of Jack's passing. New his trade inside out, always parted with a smile or laughter when we met.

Carol, Jimmy, Joey, Johnny, Diane, and Karen, I had mixed feelings when I learned of the passing of your dear Husband/Father, very sad that an old friend was gone, but happy of all the fond memories of our childhood, I was hesitant to attend the Service, thought no one would remember their old baby sitter, I'm glad you did! I remember Jack, and all of you fondly, it's sad how the years came between us, but, you were always in my heart. Jack was a very nice man, my sister, Sharon, remembers...

My thought are with you and your family today. Jack was a very special person in our lives. He will be truly missed.
