I use to caddy for Jack quite often in the late 60’s at Weston Country Club, he was a decent golfer and easy to caddy for. I was just wondering about some of the good old days of being a caddy. Also use to have Jonny Pierson play in the same group. I liked them both, they always treated me ok.

Jack is part of my history, my growing up.

In the morning before I went off to school ... there was Jack and Don Kent.

He would even tell me when we had a "snow day".

In the summer before "Big Brother Bob" ... there was Jack.

Before I really understood what a prison was ... there was Jack going in to negotiate a riot.

He was part of a lot of viewers lives and will be missed.

Commander Chase will be missed by his Naval Reserve cohorts from the Old Fogeys Club. We are happy that we were able to see him recently at one of our picnics. He was a good friend.

I remember watching the news with Jack Chase when I was a young child. Sorry to hear he died.

I wish to express my condolenses on the passing of your husband and father and grandfather.

I always watched his newscasts. He seemed to me to be a very good and moral person and you can't get much nicer than that.

He really did make it a "good day" for me, many times, with his winning smile and his sense of humor.
