How sad to lose Jack Siegel, a sweetheart of a guy. I'll miss hearing his GREAT delivery of a joke and I'll miss trying to tell him a joke he'd never heard. I was lucky enough to speak with him less that 24hrs before his passing - I'll always remember the call.

He's in good hands now, and I don't mean God's, I mean Esther's !

Dear Siegal Family,
words cannot describe my feelings for Jack. I was very lucky to know this man. I will always have the BEST memories of Jack playing golf and at Corey's house. Jack was like my third Grandfather. I will miss him.

You are all in my prayers.

Love to all of you!

Dearest Siegal Family, Jack was surely a giant of a man. He was beloved far beyond his large and adoring family. His smile will be forever engraved in my heart. This is truly the end of an era. I know he will be greatly missed but he has left behind a legacy of enduring love and loyalty that I know will forever last. Our deepest, deepest sympathies.
