Dear Marion, Paula-Sue and family,

Oh what a loss! I thought Jack would live forever. He was such a youthful soul and I will remember how he dressed at church so smartly and his pink socks. He could also belt out some tunes in the choir. He kept a sharp tenor. What lovely memories. May you count his passing for joy as he rests in peace and rise to glory. He lived a good, long life.

My sincere condolences to Mr Pitman´s family and friends. Mr Pitman was one of my bosses at
P & W´s in 1971, my first job in Bermuda after returning home from living in New Jersey. A very nice gentleman.

I worked with Jack when I was 14 in the summers and on Saturdays in the Pearman Watlington Stationery Store on Queen Street. He taught me a lot about sales and I watched him as he treated everyone with kindness and respect. My sincere condolences to his beloved family.
