Not sure what to say?

I'm so sorry for your loss. jack was a great guy, always willing to help you reach your full potential. I will forever be in his debt. He hired me ( for sales ) over the objections of his boss and the owner of the company - i stuttered. My wife and I built a marketing company based on principles laid out by Jack. We grossed over $20 million . I never got a chance to thank you Jack. We raised 5 children, 14 grand children ( the last ones name is Jack ) and 2 great grand children. You changed...

"You don't know Jack". He loved all the Jack jokes and could laugh at himself. Jack was handsome, charming and wickedly funny. He was the consumate cigar officianado. I met him at St Joseph's church on a beautiful Sunday morning. He eventually found St. Francis as he sought a church that reminded him of his church from childhood. I am deeply saddened to hear that he passed and pray his family finds peace. The Jack I knew would be happy to know that everyone would smile at the "Jack has left...

My sincere condolences to the kinealy family and loved ones. Jack was a special person who lit up a room with his presence both in high school and college . Jack was a generous and caring person and I am sure his life was never separated from his faith. Every Act is a prayer rest in peace Jack.....Gary Haegele

Jack. I dont know what made me check up on you today after all these years but in a way I do. Always that connection. And then I learned this devastating news. I remember the first time I saw those blue eyes and that amazing smile. Summer of 1965. College students working for the summer at General Motors in St. Louis. From that moment on you were always in my life sometimes near and mostly far. Over the years we would reconnect always glad to hear from each other. It has been many years...

Jack are a wonderful boss, leader, and mentor. You are everything one could look for in a good mentor. You teach us to be professionals and made working with you an interesting and memorable experience. I will always be grateful to you for your support and kindness

While we only knew Jack for a short time, we were impressed with his wit, smile, and laughter. He was a man of grace who achieved many great things. We'll raise a glass in his honor at our next holiday party.

Jack was an amazing person. I admired how his team so respected him and always worked to be #1. He will be missed - a truly unique leader.

Jack was a special man and friend with a passion for life and a unique ability to inspire others to do their best! While saddened by our loss I am thankful for my memories of Jack, the lives he touched and his vast legacy. Rest In peace Jack for a life well lived!

Jack, I will always cherish every memory of you. Thank you for everything love
