I remember Jack from the Wausau Medical Center when I worked there. He was always smiling and fun to be around. I use to see him once in awhile when I was out shopping but haven't seen him for a long time. I am sad to hear of his passing. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

I remember Jack fondly from back in the 70's when I was a student at NCTI...he was so kind and patient with the students doing clinicals in the OR. We were all nervous and he was just great explaining things and guiding us through. Sympathy to Jack's family.
