Ken, my condolences to you and your family for your loss. I know how difficult it is in losing a parent but unfortuneately it's part of the natural order of things. May Jack rest in peace.

Kenny,
The Illinois Chapter ASHRAE is so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of all are with you at this time of sorrow. Jack's involvement with the chapter, his term as president in 1976 and his life member status are a testament to his character, he will be missed.

Kenny,
Please accept our deepest sympathies from all of us at Meilner Mechanical Sales. I know Roy would have liked to come to the service, but he is still weak from his therapy.

Always in our thoughts.
