We extend our deepest condolences to Becky, Tracy, Jenny and the rest of the family. It was such a shock to hear of Jack’s passing so suddenly. We cherish many memories of time we spent together, especially dinners at De Arini’s, Fortune, and Schmidt’s. Jack touched the lives of many people at Battelle. We will miss his humorous stories and witty comments.

Becky,
As you saw from Jack's retirement party here at Battelle, he was (and will always be) held in very high esteem by his coworkers. My thoughts and prayers are with you, your family, and his friends.
