I just found out today about Jack's passing when I contacted his parents to get his phone number as he has been my air conditioning man for the last 15 years or so. But I go way back with knowing Jack. His Aunt Marlyn was my very good friend during high school and I saw him as a toddler when I spent time at Marlyn's house on South Fairmont. He was only a tot at the time. He always talked about his daughters when he worked here at our house. My heart goes out to the whole family. He was a great guy and he always kept working on our air conditioner until he got everything right.

I was so sorry to hear of young Jack's passing. I have a special place in my heart for him always as he often took the time to stop in and check up on me after my late husband passed away. He had such a good heart and I know he will be greatly missed by all his family and friends. Sending love and prayers to all.

Mr. and Mrs. Phinney and Diane,
I have fond memories of Jack, Michael and playing baseball at Kavalski Park. When I thinks of Surrey Farms and all of our friends in the neighborhood I often think of the Phinney family first. May God keep you close during this heartbreaking time. Payers for your peace and comfort.
