Albeit our contact was limited, I always found Jack to be amicable and an interesting person to talk to. Theresa, my cousin (my Uncle Joe was the oldest in my mothers JANOCHA family) spent many years looking after Jack.
Being married for over half a century will I am sure leave a void in her life.
I pray she overcomes her grief and her own physical problems and goes forward with memories of the good times.... Rich Anderson (Boca Raton,FL)

I was so sorry to hear about Jack's passing. Our family always enjoyed when the Kohlway's would visit Delaware! Jack would drive Theresa and Connie to their Uncle Walt and Aunt Mary's house and there would always be lively conversation and lots of laughter! We will miss him dearly, and we extend our deepest sympathy to his beautiful family! Much love, Mary Janocha & family
