Oskar--I just found out about Jack. I've been hiding in Amherst and not reading the TIMES. I'm stunned and the loss to you and your wife and your family--horrible. But when I saw a photo of him with your smile and read everything he was interested in. . .I realized the loss to our world. Love, Connie Congdon

Oskar and Laurie - though it has been quite a long time since we hung out in the house I shared on Oak Pass Road in LA - I think of you two with great affection and am sending my most heartfelt condolences over your terrible terrible loss. My prayers and thoughts are with you. Barbara Ligeti

Jack and I were partners in crime back in first grade. He convinced me to take out every screw in my house in hopes of finding the legendary one that would send the house crashing down. To this day, that story brings me so many joys to remember. It makes me so sad to hear of his passing. I'm so sorry for your loss. The family of my early-childhood best friend will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Oskar and Laurie......I was shocked and heartbroken when I heard about your son Jack.......I really could not find words to express my feelings...so I finally can only say that I hope your beautiful efforts to make the world a little better place through your creative genius in theater will bring you and Laurie some acceptance of the unexplainable happenings in life...... the mystery of life is hard to grasp with either faith or reason

Dear Oskar and Laurie,
What a sad, sad loss. We remember Jack in a stroller, Jack as a toddler, Jack as an adorably active 5 year old. What great promise so unfairly taken away. Hold on to your happier memories of a too brief yet indelible life.

Jack, I miss you so much. I can't stop thinking about how sorry I am that I will never see you again, see you play your accordion, rip your shirt off randomly, do a pretzel, or rip your shirt off, get into a pretzel and then play the accordion. I wish I could have been there as a shoulder to lean on. Basically, I just wish you were still here.
My absolute condolences and empathy to the Eustis clan.

Take this sorrow to the heart
and make it a part of thee
and it shall nourish thee
'til thou art strong again.
-Longfellow

Dear Oskar (Lion-maned, brave, funny, sensitive, life-changing Mr. Eustis): It is a tribute to you that so many of us, from so long ago, on so many paths which have taken us so far from you--but those paths were marked and changed by you, indeed, and we know we are better people for having known you--share your grief. We struggle alongside you and your family, although our daily lives remain unchanged, and we say a prayer of thanks. From afar, and with unending, unspeakable compassion and admiration, a formerly young actor, LISA LANE (Filholm)
