Jack will be fiercely missed at Plush Mills where I had the pleasure to meet him. My mother is a resident. Your father was bigger than life with his upbeat personality, whether joking or singing, but always bringing a smile to all. Always!! He is in heaven with his wife and friends.

As a high school kid, I had the privilege of knowing Jack very well. Jack mentored me in the weight room at the Chester YMCA every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I cannot say enough of the influence and impact that Jack shared with me during those years. But Jack was always more than willing to share his positive influences with many other young people. I once witnessed Jack address a group of young Chester teenagers. They were excited to have a professional athlete talking to them and answering their questions, but they did not hold back. They wanted to know everything of how a pro football player lived. As Jack calmly told them that he did not drink or smoke and explained his reasons for that, you could see the realization in the faces of those boys that they had a choice in how they should live. Jack continued to answer their questions of faith and lifestyle. Finally, Jack explained to the boys that how you live is your choice. Jack had just given those boys an option that they had never considered. Jacks impact that day was significant; but more impactful, was the way Jack shared his faith and commitment to others through his entire life. We all know that Jack is now in a better place, but we also know that Jacks faith and love has left this a better place.

I knew Jack briefly from his work with church groups. He was a very good man. Never bragged or mentioned his accomplishments. My best to his family. Hopefully all the good he did will be rewarded.

Very sad to hear about Jack Kultz passing. Jack was a neighbor and a friend to my parents for many years. I was very fortunate to have had him as my gym coach at Widener in the 60s and known him most of my life. His kindness and friendship were always evident whenever we met. Jack was a true inspiration for all that is fine and good about humankind.

To the family of Mr. Klotz - please accept my deepest condolences as you celebrate the life of your father/grandfather/uncle. I knew Mr. Klotz when I lived on 23rd Street and attended St. Roberts. He led a wee-lived life and had a positive impact on so many lives. He left a wonderful legacy. My prayers and thoughts are with you during this sad time in your lives.
