I was shocked to hear of Jack's passing. I came to know Jack helping him with his Medicare insurance over the last 5 years. After our business we conversed about his army service, his son in Alaska, this years garden travel to the TCU game over a cup of coffee. Just saw him in August. I will miss his friendship.
