Growing up in the huge metropolis of Neapolis I've been remembering the times we spent together. Like the time he told Miss Condon I was swearing on the playground after someone fell on me.(Circa 1961)or the time he had to take his pants off in the middle of main street because I threw a lit firecracker into his pocket full of firecrackers and they started going off! The hours and hours we would work on an old Moped to ride it for 5 minutes before it broke down again. I think of all the great times we had together. My prayers are with Marilyn and Bill at this sad time. My life is better having had Jack in it. He was the best friend anyone could have. He will always be a bright spot in my life and I will miss him.

Taught with Jack for a number of years at Jefferson Junior High (Washington Local). Jack was always friendly and kind. When I was so excited about the coming birth of Ken's and my first grandchild thirty years ago, Jack built a lovely cradle and all five of our grandchildren have slept in it as infants, as well as recently a great grandchild....wonderful memory.
