Jack and I were in a class in Polytechnic High School. We did not really know each other but he made a lasting impression on me. He had such a bright smile and there was a genuine glow about him. Even after all these years, I am saddened by finding he has passed away.

I just learned of Jack's passing. He taught me Wills & Trusts at SFLS and also taught my wife Mary at USF Law School. He was a true scholar and humble gentleman. He helped train many, many California lawyers in practice today and was always generous with his time. Pax Domini sic semper vobiscum Jack

Jack was a wonderful person and brilliant attorney. He was compassionate, kind and diligent. He was our family's estate attorney for years and served our family well. A couple of weeks ago, I received a Christmas card from Jack, like I have for years. I can't tell you how surprised and saddened I am by his passing. My condolences to the Bonanno family. Cherish the memories.
