Not sure what to say?

I was deeply saddened to hear of Jack's passing. He was a fine man and a significant influence for good in others' lives. I knew him personally for a short period of time, but still remember his kindness and great sense of humor. Rest in peace our friend. Svetlana

I only knew Jack from seeing him at Broker Open houses in the area. I was so sorry to learn of his passing. He was such a nice guy and a true gentleman. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Jack had many qualities but most of all I will remember him as a caring, reliable, good friend

Uncle Jack, you told me when I married your nephew and godson, John Walker Sr, that I should always focus on what brought John and I together. When times get hard, I always remember those wise words. You were a wonderful man, my husband misses you so very much. I will love him and comfort him and recall the memories you both shared together, as I'm sure you would want me to do. Rest in peace, continue to live to good life with John's Nanny and Papa.

Uncle Jack, you enjoyed four of the greatest Irish blessings:
Honest work to occupy you.
A hearty appetite to sustain you.
A good woman to love you.
And a wink from God above.
I'll add one more And a good drink of wine to fortify you!'.
As my Godfather and Uncle, you were always there for me with wise words, comfort, advice and laughter.
Our last conversation will stay with me forever. I told you I loved you
I always will.
I'll miss you forever. John Walker...

Those we love don't go away
They walk beside us every day
Unseen, unheard, but always near
Still loved, still missed and very dear
May the good saints protect you and bless you.
And may troubles ignore you, each step of the way
Until we meet again, may God Hold you in the palm of his hand
Your loving sister Kathleen Walker (Dow Walker Jr.) children - John Walker Sr, (Jack's Godson), James Walker, Stephen Walker, Brian Walker (Jack's Godson), Scott Walker, Dow Walker.
