Elaine, Lindsey and Kristin,
Mark and I are extremely saddened by Jack’s passing. Jack was a great friend to Mark, as well as myself, and my children. Jack was the type of person you could always count on, he was willing to help out in any situation. Jack loved all of you dearly, and was a devoted husband, father and grandfather.
And to top it all off, he was a great cook! We always looked forward to his homemade lasagna and his stuffed crabs. He loved to cook, and he loved to share with those he cared about.
We will miss Jack’s wit, warmth and kindness.
Our thoughts and prayers are with your family during this time of great loss.
