My sincere condolences to Jack's family and friends at his passing. I wish I could attemd the service, but travel is not my forte these days. As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you never forget what a fine man Jack was, indeed, still is. My prayers are with you and my friend and coworker.
