So sorry to hear that Jack passed. I found out last week from Robert Shepherd when I attended the viewing of Pete Serrattore who was also a Southern graduate from 1969. I remember Jack from Anthony Wayne Elementary School and as Captain of the Safety Patrol. We lost contact when Jack attended Vare Junior H.S. and I went to Audenreid. We met again at Southern. He was a great guy and had a lot of laughs growing up.

Today, I honor the memory of my Pop-Pop. His passing leaves a void, but his impact on my life will never fade.
His wisdom, gleaned from years of experience, taught me valuable life lessons that will stay with me forever.
Though he may be gone, we'll continue to share his stories, honor his memory, and strive to make him proud.
Rest in peace, Pop-Pop.

One of my favorite memories is when Grandpa Jack was introduced to his Great Grand Daughter for the first time. I´ll never forget the joy and smiles being together placed on both their faces.

Dear Gail,
Jack was a valued and caring member of the Board of Directors. He always had great insight and could always make us laugh. He was one of a kind! We will miss him. We are so sorry for your loss.

We are so grateful for all the fabulous memories Jack left us with throughout the years. Many memories were highlighted by the numerous trips we have taken together with him, and his wife Gail. The getting together for lunches, and dinners were met with much laughter, and joy. When Marlene and I met Jack and Gail in 2007, it was the beginning of a wonderful friendship, and a true blessing.
