So sorry to hear of the loss of Jack. Remember listening and dancing to his piano playing at Christophers in Oneonta. He will be missed by anyone who knew him. Loved listening to him play, a great loss.

Dear Jennie and Families, So sorry to hear about Jack's passing. When my husband and I were first dating back in 1953 our dates mostly consisted of going to where Jack was playing the piano. We both loved music and it was a joy to hear him play. I have very fond memories of those times. My husband passed away 14 years ago and I still miss him. I know Jack will be missed by all who knew him. He was a great guy! My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Jack was a special person to our family. He was a good neighbor who often brought us treats from his bountiful gardens. He was a regular customer at The Pie from the day we became his new neighbor in July, 1992, where across the counter, we would share stories and Jack didn't hesitate to tell us if the berries were a bit high - "how about a deal?". Jack also happened to know our parents from his piano playing venues in the Greene area, where we both were born. For years customers in our store were treated to Jack Stahl playing piano on tape courtesy of Jack. Speaking of "Jack", we used to tell him that we named our son Jack after him and in a sense we did, choosing the name because it's a great name and we knew so many great guys named "Jack".
Our condolences to another special neighbor, Jack's wife, Jennie.
Jamie and Janet (& Jack and Sadie) of Pie In The Sky
