Osborne family, my thoughts and prayers today are with you. Jack was a great teammate at Cardinal Dougherty but an even greater person and friend. His positive attitude was infectious and helped many of us!He was our team's energizer bunny and without doubt one of a kind.
RIP OZ

Greetings Family,
Sharing some memories with you.During a reunion Jack was so concerned that my kids( daughter & son) got financial assistance that he was advising me to call someone he knew to enter our graduating daughter into a scholarship program. That was Jack- always willing to let people hang onto his coattails & get a good education.
In high school on a dare I tried out for the play & surprisingly got the lead. After my performance standing there in a borrowed captains hat & blazer two sizes too large for me, Jack was one of the few thoughtful people to congratulate me !
Jack, outstanding basketball athlete, may you finally know how much you have contributed to the lives of others by your kind remarks & offers of help!
Peace, Love, Serenity & Many Blessings for your family whom I am sure you will watch over!

Frank - So sorry to learn of Jack's passing. I saw him recently at our annual class mini-reunion in Avalon. He was unrelentingly upbeat despite the cruel physical limitations he was enduring. He excused himself early as he had "to run a marathon tomorrow."

And that's how I'll remember him.

May he rest in peace.
