Not sure what to say?





My deepest condolences to the family on the loss of Jack. For some reason, I was thinking about my old friends I worked with years ago (1977 through 1983) at CTA. Just so happened to look Jack up today and saw that he recently passed. So very sorry. I enjoyed working with him those few years in the Claim Department. My thoughts are with you all.
