I am so sorry to hear of Jack's passing. I truly enjoyed working with Jack. I learned a lot from him. He really cared for labor movement and their families. You all are in my prayers.

I was very sad to learn of Jack’s passing; He was a good man and fine lobbyist. I became acquainted with him when I served in the WV Senate from the Twelfth District. He was trusted and respected as a person who stood up for those he represented. He will be greatly missed. He was , on occasion, my jitterbug partner.

Love and prayers for the family. 38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 8:38-39
