I think of you often Jack, I miss speaking with you and sharing the Desert Sun Newspaper.

Jack was always so thoughtful and kind. We loved you Jim and Dotty Booher

Jack was my trial practice instructor at Indiana University after his retirement. We were amazed at our fortune in landing him as a teacher. He was loved by his students for his keen intellect, generosity, and kindness. He made the world a better place and will be missed.

I spent wonderful times with Jack in Palm Springs and Coronado and will miss him very much.
