John, Gail, Kathy and Marie:
Our deepest sympathy to all of you on the loss of your father. I am sorry that we could not be there for you as we were out of town. John was a wonderful man, and he loved his family and city. We shared many chats and laughs about family experiences and politics. Some of them were about common sense and logic, or the lack of. He always took the time to listen not only to constituents but to people in general. He was a real gentleman. It was my privilege to...

My deepest sympathy is extended to all of on the loss of your Dad. I have such fond memories of him with my 37 years of working with the city, the democratic functions, meetings and birthdays we celebrated at city hall. I will miss him so so much. They do not make people like him any more. I guess your Mom wanted him with her.

To the Garlock family,
Let me first extend my deep sympathy on the passing of your Dad. My memories of Jack go way back to Union St. I can still see him playing ball with us in the street even though he was a few years older than us. He never forgot me over the years and when we met, he would always reminice about those days. Jack was a class guy and a great friend. God bless him and may he forever rest in peace.
