You have to know the angels are celebrating to have Jack with them. If heaven was great before, just think how happy they must be with him there! I do hope they have plenty of jelly beans for his sweet tooth. He will be missed by all who knew him. I am sorry for our loss.

Dear Maureen
Our Deepest sympathies and sincere condolences to you and the whole family. Jack will always be remembered in the most loving way, as a wonderful father, husband and grandfather, who was strong, cheerful with a great sense of humor. He certainly taught Saad how to carve the Thanksgiving Turkey! We will keep him in our prayers. Our love to you, Rich, Tara, Alex and Richard.

I will always remember your dad when he called me. The first thing he would say when I answered the phone would be is this my favorate niece from Brooklyn. I always answered yes it is! He always had a happy and cheerful voice no matter what. He always made you feel good no matter how you were feeling, I am so happy that I was able to talk with him before he passed. Love you all

Hi Aunt Maureen, Uncle Rich, Tara and Alex, and Richard,
I'm so sorry about your loss. I know it must be really hard and I wish that we were closer--family always makes things better! I want you to know that I'm thinking and praying for you all. Jack was such a vivacious man! I only remember him at an older age and that is my recollection, so I can't imagine all the wonderful stories and charismatic moments you must have shared in his younger years too. He led such a full life, I feel that he genuinely enjoyed (and smiled!) every femtosecond (that's every 10^-15 or one quadrillionth of a second, he deserves the prefix) of it and I'm sure he's looking down on all of you now, hoping that in his passing we will all remember to do the same.
All my love,
Courtney Rose

Maureen,
I can’t tell you how sorry we were to hear about your dad’s passing. He was definitely one of those people that you thought would be around forever. His wonderful smile and great laugh will live forever in our memories.
I have a vivid memory of your dad opening the door of his sparkling new black Nissan Maxima for your mother outside the Trump Plaza in Atlantic City. I have no doubt that his “Ginger Lovely” and his beloved Dawn were there holding the door open for him when he arrived in Heaven.
Please extend our sympathies to Rich, Tara & Alex, R.J., Pam & Tim. You have all been in our thoughts.
Sincerely,
Mary & John

You two have been on my mind and I wanted to send my deepest condolences. It goes without saying that Poppy was such a great man, a beautiful man….and he will be deeply missed. It makes me happy to know he is with the loved ones that have been waiting for him. I am wishing I could hug you both in person right now, but my little message will have to do.
Love to the family.
Love always, Kat

Dear Maureen and Pam,
I know too well how painful it is for a daughter to lose her father. My father's funeral was 39 years ago today and my heart still aches. Jack was a gift to our family, as he was to humanity - selfless, grateful, optimistic, loving and kind. And more. It was always a pleasure to be in his presence. I send you my love and prayers as you grieve. Much love to you both and Rich, Tim, Kara and RJ. Kathy (Kleps) Rule

Dear Maureen,
Please know that you and your entire family are in my prayers. I will have your dad remembered at Mass and Rosary tonight.
I met your dad only once many years ago and found him to be a warm and gentle man. May the angels lead him into paradise.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this time. Jack was an amazing man. I'll always remember how his beaming smile lit up the room at the LAM fundraisers. May you hold tight to all your wonderful memories. Love, Dana Wilkinson

Words cannot express how sorry we are For the loss of your Dad (Our Uncle Jack). Both of your parents were so sweet and always put a smile on our faces when they were around. Still today when we watch our engagement video and Uncle Jack says " I would like to say Congratulations to Kenny and DAVEY and what a wonderful couple they are" it always brings and smile to our faces. Kenny still sometimes will call me Davey and makes me think of Uncle Jack and brings a smile to my Face.
We are better people for knowing your parents and the world is a lesser place without them.
You always have family in New York and a place to stay.
All our love ,
Kenny & Deirdre(DAVEY)

Dad, my memories of you will always light up my heart. Your laughter, silliness, storytelling, piggyback rides, yodeling, singing, and how hard you worked to support your family are the memories I will keep forever.
I will miss you and I will always remember the legacy that you would want us to have ... a prayer that you lived by "God Grant Me the Serenity to Accept the Things I Cannot Change, the Courage to Change the Things I Can, and the Wisdom to Know the Difference." Love Always, Maureen
