Jack was much more a hero than he knew. His influence on my life was enormous and I regret that did not tell him. Though he chastised me more than once, he was a loyal friend.

Dear Jim and Patty,
Brad and I are sorry about your father passing away. He certainly was such an accomplished man. Losing a parent is very difficult and hope that your Mother is doing alright. Wishing all of you deepest sympathy.

My heartfelt condolences to the Guth family. Of all my years with IBM/SRA, working with Jack are the most memorable. He brought out the best in all of us. May he rest in peace.

I join you in sorrow over the loss of a remarkable man. This is truly the end of an era. I so enjoyed having he and Mary Jane as friends in Colony Square. Give Mary Jane my love and a big hug. My thoughts and prayers to all of you.

Dear Mary Jane, Patty and Jim,
I was saddened to hear that Jack had passed away. Roy and I would like to extend our deepest sympathy to you.
Many people remember Jack as a task master who would accept only the best from the people who worked for him.
I remember the man who would interupt a business meeting to accept a call from a member of his family...a man who always put his family first and formost.
During the years I worked for him, I became aware of how well-respected and admired he was in the IBM community by fellow executives and those who worked with and for him.
I have many treasured memories of my association with him at SRA and will always think of him with fondness.
I know he will be deeply missed.
Our warmest wishes to you in this sad and difficult time.

Dear Mary Jane, James & Patricia:
I am so sorry to hear that Jack has passed away. I have such good memories of helping with the sale of their townhouse.
I always loved seeing them and their darling dog!!
I knew Jack was " high powered"! The obituary column was a great tribute! I will always treasure meeting Jack, Mary Jane, James & Patricia. My sincere sympathy to the entire family.
Sincerely,
Marsha Noble

It is with great sorrow that a man that I came to know, knew my wife back in St. Louis, when both worked at the same IBM office on Lindell Blvd. Jack was a man of distinction and was a friend.
May he rest in peace. We do know that being in heaven, Jack is running things and that he is watching his family here on earth.
God rest
Sandy and John Berenc

My husband Calvin and I extend our deepest and profound sympathies to Mary Jane and the entire Guth family. Jack was a giant of a man with high standards, values and expectations for achievement. I have many fond memories of working as a member of his staff at SRA/IBM. He made achieving the hardest tasks possible with his encouragement and confidence in me. But most importantly, I have had the greatest honor and hold the warmest memories of sharing some of my life's achievements with Mary Jane and Jack. I will always remember him in my prayers and will light a candle in his memory.
May his memory be eternal and may God comfort all of you on this great loss.
