Jack is one of the finest people I have had the pleasure to know. You never doubted where he was coming from, because he always said what he meant, and meant what he said. You will be missed.

Your smiling face and humor will be remembered..God Bless you and your family…in Heaven there is no “slow play”!!!
Jack, you always carried yourself as a true gentleman. You possessed a great sense of humor and would laugh at yourself first when you made a mess of a good positioned golf ball. All the guys in Sarasota will miss you.
