There was never a dull moment around Jack. Always a welcoming heart and a ready smile. Fond memories in costume and the trip to the mountains was truly "a trip" to never be forgotten. Thanks to all for sharing him with all of us. Annette Calkins Hebert

Jack was a true original. While, there are periods of his life that I didnt experience, the times in Sunshine when going to Jacks place made many a person smile, including myself and Juanita (whom I met there). Thanks for the good times, the serious discussions, the people who we met, and the memories. A generous, funny, and loyal friend.
Our deepest condolences to Jack's family and friends

Dearest Cousins,
These past few months haven't been easy for you with the death of Francis and now Jack. We know their loss has left a tremendous void in your lives because both of them had such a powerful presence. We have some wonderful memories of them from their brief visits to Elkins Park and Ocean City and we know that in time, you, too will be able to reflect on those many occasions where love and laughter spread throughout your time together.

Jack was an incredible person. I have many childhood memories from spending time at his house in Sunshine and him at our house in BR. My deepest sympathy to his family including Jessica, Tiffany, Ashley, his beloved grandbabies, nieces and nephews, and to all the friends who loved him. He will be missed.
