MaryJane, Jennifer and Jonathon,
There are no words to express my sincere sympathy in the passing of Jack. He was special - a real gentleman with a quick smile and a big heart. I wish you comfort in the days ahead. Comfort in knowing that not many had what you had with Jack, he was a true gift. Yes, you are the lucky ones for sure. May God continue to bless you and keep you close. With deepest sympathy - Patti (DeLuca) Michalko

Dear Mary Jane,

It is with great sadness that I read of the passing of Jack. I only had the pleasure of meeting him a few times, but it was obvious what a genuine and gracious person he was. You and your family will be in my prayers.

My father and I have had the sincere pleasure of knowing "Jack" and doing business with him since he opened his store 35 years ago. He "Exemplifies" what "Humanity" is.I looked forward when coming into the store,we had some great conversations on sports, politics, etc. His out going personality and and his caring to all who in came in contact with will live on forever!He will truly be "Missed". I will miss his smiling face and remember "Jack" in my prayers. My sincere sympathies go to His beloved Mary Jane and children.
