JOHN HYLAND

He was a good and visionary man. I was privileged to serve with him.

Like so many faculty members at TC, I knew Jack as a quiet advisor and a constant supporter. He was always ready to offer a warm, kind bit of encouragement, to ask for my insights about the College, and of course to share enthusiasm for two grand institutions: Teachers College and Williams College. How grateful I am for his presence in my life and for his deep love for these two great schools. I know his legacy will live on in the work we all do.

Teachers College lost a good friend, supporter, leader. He left the College in much better shape than he found it. His warm personality, quick wit, and keen intellect will be forever remembered by those individuals with whom he served. He guided the Board in a collegial manner. He became a dear friend. I will miss him.
My condolences to his partner in life and his family. His work is done but his memory will linger forever.

Jack was a valued member of the Clark Art Institute's Board of Trustees and was keenly committed to the growth of the Institute. Personally, he was the first of our trustees that I ever met, and was always so kind, generous, and thoughtful. My deepest sympathy to all who loved him, learned from him, and benefited from his guidance.

My sincere condolences to all who knew Jack, especially Larry and Jack's other family .I was Jack's college roommate and fraternity brother and enjoyed his great sense of humor, his amazing intellect and his loyal friendship. Jack was very bright and highly motivated but he was also fun and did not take himself too seriously.
He was modest despite his many successes on many fronts. He was a true Renaissance Man with many interests and talents. He service to Columbia TC and The Clark Art...

I was very sorry to hear of Jack's passing. I knew him as a board member of the Clark Art Institute, where I work. Jack was a dedicated and ideal trustee, bringing so much wisdom and talent to board discussions. I will remember his lively sense of humor and great range of interests. My condolences to Larry and the rest of Jack's family - he will be sadly missed.

The Jack Kent Cooke Foundation will miss Jack's wise counsel, generous disposition and persuasive manner. Although he was a counselor to the Board for a mere 3 years, he quickly became an important part of the debate. He will be sorely missed.

Dear Larry and family,

Peter and I were saddened to hear of your loss - Jack was beyond special! His gracious, yet direct, manner was not only charming but endearing, his knowledge deep, his advice always appreciated!....and his humor infectious! Although we only knew him briefly, his involvement in our "Larry House" was complete from concept to the out-of-the-ground masterpiece! We will miss his creative and constructive critiques of house and gardens, his knowledge of plant material,...

Condolences are extended to the family and friends at this sad time. May God bless and comfort grieving ones, and may the hope held out at Hos :13:14 make it easier to bear your loss.
