Due to a scheduling conflict, I am unable to extend my condolences in person. I am one of the Yoga instructors at Sussex Fitness Center and Jack regularly attended my classes. I have thought of Jack often over the past few months as I knew of his cardiac history and had not seen him in a while. I know that he thought so much of his entire family as his face would light up whenever he spoke of you, Nancy, or his children and grandchildren. I was saddened to see his obituary but believe that he is in a better place. He will truly be missed. May you find peace and solace in the memories you have of him. Bless all of you.
