Not sure what to say?

I can only reaffirm what I wrote last year: Jack - your kind gentleness is needed more than ever in a world gone crazy. Your light, now sadly extinguished, is hugely missed.

In the troubled world we have today it is so very good to recall Jack. He was a gentle person, always kind and thoughtful. I knew him since the time he married my sister, Anne. On my annual trips back to the States it was a great pleasure to stay with them as he was so welcoming and we all would have a great time. Sorely missed...a light extinguished.

To the Brinckerhoff Family,
Your father always brought a smile to my face. I first met him 30 years ago when we traveled to your home where you all grew up to attend Andy's wedding in July, 1983. He always had a way about him to joke with me and make me laugh. I have very fond memories of your Dad.
Our prayers are with all of you,
Dorothy Constantin,
Matthew, Andrew and Emily Constantin

Tom was a good friend; Jack led the family that raised him right. Rest in Peace.

Jack may the peace of the Lord be with you. May a warm wind be at your back. It has been a pleasure to know you. We have missed seeing you at mass. Rest in the peace.

Andy and Teresa,
It's been many years since I have seen your dad, Andy.He was an amazing and memorable man. I'm very sorry that he is lost to the world.

Jack is now where he belongs-with his God and His angels and saints and his loveable Mother, Mary! Met Jack in the last hour of a retreat at Shellbourne. He changed my life. Has since been in my daily prayers. What a GEM!
Oremus! RIP with Love Tom O'Connor

Phil and Nancy & Family
We are sorry for the loss of your father and grandfather. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
Bill and Betty Springman and family

I had the great pleasure of meeting Mr. Brinckerhoff 25 years ago when his son Phil married my sister Nancy. Over these past 25 years, the Moody Family and the Brinckerhoff Family have shared many happy times together. I will truly miss seeing Mr. Brinckerhoff's smiling face at family gatherings. I am sincerely sorry for the loss of your father. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Brinckerhoff Family.
Love,
Cindy Moody
