Jack has left us beautiful memories of a gentleman who was always thoughtful but also fun to know, memories that go back to parties on Bowman Avenue and Long Port and Princeton and through the years. You were always an outstanding couple and may the awareness of his love comfort you in the days ahead. Our Lord's strength be with you and Maggie.
