Ditto on last year. Over the last year Jack's name has come up several times. The other two guys I work with now are story tellers to. But Get Jack and the other John going and there was no stoppin' God bless you, Penny.

I worked with Jack (We knew him as John because the other John (Hovorka) was known as Jack) at the Capitol Visitor Center. Many years, many days with story after story. It was always a pleasure to work with John. A true gentleman. We have missed him here at the Capitol. Penny, I pray peace for you that only god can give.

Aunt Penny, Elaine and Doug. So sorry for your loss. Uncle Jack was great. One of my fondest memories of him was when we would visit from St Louis he would always take us out in his convertible, top down and when he would come across a dip he would speed up just a tad. We would all put our arms up like we were on an amusement ride. I really enjoyed our visits.
