I too am sorry to hear of the death of Former City Manager John Connors. In Newport we hired John primarily for his knowledge or finances and capital improvement, and in that effort I was very happy to work with John. Also sorry to hear that he had been ill and in Veterans Home but will keep in thoughts and prayers at this sad time. Dave Roderick, Newport.

I am so sorry to hear of Jack's passing. I worked at SBA and Jack was in our SCORE chapter. I am a retired Naval Reserve Officer and Jack was a Marine Officer at one time. We had many conversations about the military and local government. Sorry we did not have a chance to talk one more time. Wonderful man. God Speed Jack

RIP my friend Jack. You fought a great battle. A wonderful classmate and a tremendous athlete, on the gridiron and the wrestling mat. You are in good company now with your fellow townies and Marines. Semper Fi.
