He is also survived by 11 grandchildren; 12 great-grandchildren,; his brother Harry of Florida; 30-some nieces and nephews and exceptional care giver Le Emmons. He was predeceased by his wife Dorothy Hancock (2007); brothers Walter and Robert Moore and sister Anne Muttersbaugh. Jack generously donated his body to Georgetown University School of Medicine. Consequently, the family will hold a celebration of Jack''s life with a memorial picnic at Huntley Meadows Park, Alexandria, VA 22306 on Sunday, May 23, from noon to 4 p.m. (http:// www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/huntley/ ). After retirement Jack was a volunteer at Huntley Meadows Park and also an active member and past-president of the Brotherhood of the Jungle Cock, an organization which teaches the joys of fishing to youth.
