So sorry to learn of Jack's passing. We grew up together in New Rochelle, NY and I was best man at his wedding to Eileen. We sure had a lot of fun together when we were growing up and I will never forget them. We have not seen each other for a number of ears but have kept in touch via numerous email messages for many years.
