We miss him so much. He was our favorite customer at Clearwater Travel Plaza. Wonderful conversations many laughs. I hope he knew how much he meant to us. His last text to me was the night before he died. Thought he was getting better. One in a million!

I have many fond memories of Jack, I always enjoyed his sense of humor, he made me laugh many times in the 37 years I’ve been married to his brother Richard. We’ll miss you, Jack!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear Joe, Richard, and Liz,

I am sorry to hear of Jack’s passing. Arnie and I would eat dinner with him once in a while when we would go out to eat and find that he was there, too. Jack and Jim’s and Copper Lantern were favorites. Jack’s face lit up when he saw us. He greeted us with a smile and sparkle in his eyes. It was always good to see and visit with him. May he rest in peace. And may you be comforted by the love of family and friends. Kathryn

I extend to Joe,and Dick my sincere condolences on Jack’s death.It was a real surprise! As you know we grew up together and had some many good times, some a little too good.
I shall really miss him.

Joe, Richard and Liz,
I was sadden to have heard of Jack’s passing away. I will always remember the twinkle I would see in his eyes whenever we would bump into each other around town and stop to talk. I will miss seeing his beautiful smile and twinkling eyes that reminded me so much of your mom. Much love, Mary
