I am so sorry for the loss of Jack. He was one of the greatest men I ever knew. I was so lucky to have had him in my life. I will never forget him and the way he was. God Bless you all.

I've only known Jack for two short years, but in those two years he brought much joy and many warm and wonderful memories. He had a kind soul and loved to pick and carry on with me.

Jack, Was a great influiance in my life as a young child in the Montclair neighbor hood. I used to mow his yard and help him in the summers picking peaches and apples on 12 O'clock knob. I have thought about him often in my life and how many special moments we had and him taking me and my brother and sister to Dairy Queen on Peters Creek Road. He was really one of God's angels on this earth and he will be missed. Star

Uncle Jack was exactly the uncle every little girl wanted. He treated me like a princess, arriving in his shiny convertible. He played Wildwood Flower on his Martin guitar so well that I can still hear it decades later. I have so many wonderful memories of how much he loved all of us children like we were his own. He spoiled his nieces and nephews until one day his own dreams came true. He was so full of love that when he had his own children, Barry, Donna, Brian, and all those...
