John was an incredible friend to my parents, Richard and Dolores O´Hara and a friend and mentor to me when I was starting my legal career in the labor movement in NYC. My father and I were very sad to hear of his passing but as we talked about him for a long while , each story and memory brought big smiles to our faces. God bless John and Gerri.

To me, Jack was like a brother from the second my sister started dating him.
A low profile tough guy. Who taught me so much on how to be a good man. A big Brother,who was always ready to help or to have a good time.
Jack has been an incredible support system for the whole Petrella Family, BUT especially my Mother .
Jack would drop anything just to make Momma comfortable.
He was a brother who was extremely generous ,welcoming and loving to my own children. And will always have a special place in their hearts.
A Real Man who was accomplished, and extremely driven.
Jack has touched so many others lives and will be missed and loved forever.

I will always be grateful to John he was a true mentor to me during his tenure on the Board of Directors at HIP. He was always on the side of the underdog. He had a deep understanding of how things work in both business and government. Further, he was a loving husband , father, and grandfather. I looked up to John he will be missed by all. ` When they made you brother they broke the mould `."

Of all Jack's incredible accomplishments, the unconditional love he shared with his wife and children was the most impressive. Jack was a giant among men who will be missed by all who had the good fortune to have ever met him. Peace and condolences to the O'Connor family and Godspeed Jack.
