It's hard to believe that Jack has been gone this long. He was so interested in Family Genealogy and was key in connecting us with our American relatives. Every time I look at the binders of family trees and histories , I think of him and visits we had.

Jack and Nancy Weiss were my husbands best friends and we had our first date at their house in 1965 when I met them . Jack was such a fun guy, intellect and like a father image to me I will always miss him and so happy I still have Nancy here to share her memories and mine together! Love, Judy. See you in heaven Jack!!

I have great memories of the times spent checking old records to find more links in the family tree and regret that I wasn't able to visit with you both when Mum and Dad did.

Jack and I go back to EPHS days...then V12 at different schools, then St. Louis, where he was kind enough to remember me, then give us a good rate mortgage on our Webster Groves home.
A true gentleman, and a friend who'll be sorely
missed.
