Tom and I new Jack from the mountains (Turner's). Ran into him 4 years ago in Wildwood at West Catholics "Burrs at the Beach". One fond memory I have is the time I needed a ride to the Poconos to meet Tom who had driven up the night before. Once Jack got off the Turnpike and got on Interstate 76 we started spotting dear. We almost got arrested. We laughed about that for a long time.
