Not sure what to say?

Jack and Faith are some of the nicest kindest people my husband, Sidney, and I ever had the pleasure to know. Jack hired Sidney in 1961 and we were friends ever since. Jack was a wonderful person and he will be missed and remembered forever. My deepest sympathy to Faith, Jimmy, Mark and all the Conlon family. Pearl Claunch

I have just learned of the passing of Jack Conlon- my heart is broken. I am so sorry for Faith, Jim, and Mark., and their families. I am blessed to know Faith and Jack since I was a UMass student many years ago. They were, and still are, my family away from home. Love you both, and will forever cherish my memories of Jack.

Oh, when I saw Jack's picture in his obituary today, it brought back memories of his friendship with my dad, Leo Lessard, who was a custodian at the School of Business Administration at UMASS. Years later, I also worked in the same building which had a name change to the School of Management. I worked in the Word Processing Center and always loved it when Jack Conlon and I crossed paths. He was one of the nicest, funniest and kindest persons I had ever known and I loved that I got to know...

I met jack about two years ago and can say that he is one of the finest gentlemen I've ever met. We shared our love of WWII history.

My condolences to Faith, his beautiful wife, their children and extended family.

For many years Jack was my father's best friend. I hope you are playing golf with my dad and having many theosophical conversations with my dad and Qiuq. All three of you up there watching over all of us loved ones, makes me feel better. Love to all who knew you...a practical joker, a wonderful man and father. Bless you Jack. And love to your beautiful wife and best friend, Faith, and your beloved family. RIP.

Jack Conlon was a true gentleman, and an inspiration for those of us who worked with him in the labor relations community. We were so fortunate to have had him in our lives. My deepest sympathy to his family.
