Great Supervisor! Great guy all around! I retired from the Postal Service in 2001 and I can always remember that Jack had "a minute" to chat with you. I didn't realize he was only 4 years older than me. It seemed that he was more knowledgable and (older?!?) in my mind's eye. Of all the people that I miss from working at the Lancaster plant, he will be one of those. My heartfelt condolences to the family. Malinda Smith
For the short period of time that I knew Jack, I realized what a nice guy he was. I had a lot of fun being with him and Judy and wish I could have known him longer. I know he suffered a lot in the past year and I know he is in a better place and looking down at all of us. Jack will be remembered and missed greatly! Rose Derr
