My deepest condolences to the Kinahan family. I had the privilege to work with John at Saul Stone and have such wonderful memories of that time. Lunches at The Mercantile Club, his amazing sense of humor, his faith and love for his family. This world was blessed because of him. Thank you to the Kinahan family for sharing him with all of us.

Oh Kathleen, I am so very sorry for the loss of Jack for you, John, Erin and families. My last memories of Jack are of the fabulous wedding that Erin and Heath had and how well Jack seemed to be doing. I bet that was one of his best memories, as it is for so many of us. I'll keep his beaming smile from that night in my heart. I'll be attending virtually on Thursday and please know I am sending my love and prayers for Jack and you all. With much love and sympathy - Cousin Nora
