Not sure what to say?

Janice, Just heard about Jack's passing and wanted to offer my condolences. I always enjoyed working with your husband he was alot of fun and always did a terrific job. He was also full of stories and advice. I've carried with me his advice about bring up children and share it often with others. Jack use to say, "little kids little problems" "big kids big problems" and "little kids little expenses" "big kids big expenses" and he was right. I kept his advice in mind as I raised my three...

It was a pleasure to work with Jack and his crew on the many special events at the hospital - especially our 100th "Vincentennial" Celebration. Jack always produced an extravaganza of perfection!

Heather and family,

Our deepest sympathy to you and your family.
From the Diet Office staff at Fairlawn

I am a coworker of Heather's but had known Jack prior to that. I knew Jack when he was at Saint Francis Home, I was the rehab director and enjoyed working with Jack. He brought alot of smiles to our department. My heart and prayers go to Heather and her family. God Bless

TO THE TAMKE FAMILY,
I DIDN'T KNOW MR TAMKE BUT I KNEW HEATHER VERY WELL AS SHE WAS MY NURSE AT FAIRLAWN. I AM VERY SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS AND PLEASE KNOW I WILL PRAY FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.

Janice & Family,
I was so sorry to hear of Jack's passing. I worked with him in the Food Service Dept. at St. V's for many years. He was a great guy, always willing to help out, solve a problem etc, using humor and great people skills. I will keep Jack and your family in my prayers.

My heartfelt condolences go out to all of Jack's family. I had the opportunity of working with Jack at St. Vincent's Hospital for a number of years and always found him to be a gentleman to deal with. He was a fine man and will be missed.
