Please accept my deepest condolences on the loss of a very dear friend of mine from a much simpler time in our lives. Jack was a good man and we shared many a long night working for Comshare in the early 1980's. He was a good friend, intelligent & sharing mentor, and just a great guy. He and I shared a lot during those years and I am a better person for having that opportunity...Take care of yourself my good friend, I look forward to seeing you again....
