I learned about Jack's passing only recently. We were friends at West Jr. High and Borah High. We were also in the guard together. My deepest sympathy to his family.

I became aware of General Kane's passing 3 days ago. I am so sorry. He hired me as his secretary when he was LTC Kane and I worked for/with him for at least 10 years. He wa a great 'boss'! I will miss seeing him and his family at lunch buffets here in Boise.

Magor Kane and Sandra were the escorts for my husband, Pete, and me for the inaugural festivities for many years. They were an inspiration to all of us in public office, for their friendship and caring. My sincere gratitude and condolences to Sandra and the family.

MG Kane was a brilliant visionary who prepared the Idaho Guard for the 21st Century. He was also an excellent leader who was able to make the mission happen and take care of people. He will be greatly missed.

Jack Kane served his country in an exemplary fashion. He was a visionary and a leader who believed in loyalty up and loyalty down. He was a proud and vocal advocate for the men and women of the Idaho National Guard. Well done, Jack. Carry on!
