My condolences to all whose lives were touched by Jack. We hung out with a bunch of like-minded folks at Ohio State, went to Ft. Lauderdale for spring break with a group (where Jack fell in love in that area) and protested injustices. Perhaps some don't know that Jack sought and received CO status (conscientious objector) during the Vietman War. I was honored to write one of his support letters.

A new star is shining in the heavens tonight. My condolences to his family, and thanks to Jack for for the joy he gave to the world.

The Rivera's family from Lorain, Ohio want to express our deepest sympathy for the loss of your brother. All of you are in our prayers. Jack, you and your family are truly loved. May the Lord's peace be with all of you. Maria Rivera Moriarty

Suzi, Katie & Christopher,
I am thinking of you and sorry for your sadness after
the death of your parent/grandparent.

RIP, Mr. Zink.

Jack was a talented, loved and well-respected member of our condo community. It deeply saddens me to think I will no longer see him at meetings, dinners and other social occasions. My heart goes out to his dear widow Cindy and their family.
