Our sincere deepest sympathies thoughts and prayers to Jack’s entire family. I spent several years in Harrisburg with Jack when he worked for Tony Melio and the House of Representatives. I have fond memories of going to morning mass and breakfast and dinner. A true gentleman and great friend may he rest in eternal peace.
