Jack was very instrumental in the ongoing success of the Great Lakes Wing of the CAF. He was concientious and well liked by all. Above all he gave me personal support in running the wing. Jack will be missed by all.

It was always my honor to fly with Jack on behalf of the Commemorative Air Force. He was an active and contributing member with some great stories and dedicated to our mission, "Lest we forget."
Semper Fi, Jack.
