I'll never forget Uncle Jack showing up at the picnic with Uncle Dick -- quite the pair -- both of them wearing those cool sunglasses. He'll have a good buddy in Heaven, and others like my mom who loved him too. Pat, Kami and I are keeping you in our thoughts with love.

I am so sorry for your loss. The thing I remember the most about Jackie is his great laugh. I was a little girl when we used to go to Allentown to visit our cousins. Last time I saw Jackie was at a family reunion a few years ago. Such a sweet and gentle man I am sure he will be deeply missed.
