John Carrigan Obituary

My Deepest Sympathy to the Carrigan Family. Jack lived above me on Henley Street. He was a great neighbor to me and later my husband. He loved to tease me when I would cook Italian. He would call up and say "do I smell brownies cooking?" He meant garlic. So I would run up with some chocolate. A few years later his good friend Don Hackett moved in across the hall from him. Don lived above my now nephew-in-law. What a lucky person I was to have these three bachelors living in that small complex. I became a "mother" to all of them. My husband and I had a great relationship with them and they all attended our wedding. Jack was a riot! The camera man video taping the wedding asked Jack to say a few words. He made everyone including the photographer laugh so hard. He brought joy and laughter all the time. These three guys were more like our family than friends as we encountered each other every day. We loved Jack's football parties and he made the best Irish mash potatoes and he told you so. All of us opened our doors for his guests as it was always an over-flowing group that attended these parties. So to Jack "thanks for the memories." Rest in peace.

I am so sorry to hear of Jack's passing. I worked with him at WGN-TV and send my condolences. I know that God will be waiting for him with open arms for all the good he has done on this earth. He touched my life in so many good ways. God Bless.

Deep condolences from another old golfing friend from the 90's. Me,being a year older, gave us much in common. He was honest, hard-working and very proud of his family. (They allow "gimmes" in Heaven)

Great memories of Milwaukee,Lake Geneva,Boyne Mt,Pinewood Athletic Club and the Lenten Retreats at the Redemtorists on Milwaukee Ave GOD BLESS!

Will miss you, Jack. A visit to Butch Maguire's won't be the same.

What a great competitor on the golf course. It was always a pleasure, being with Jack. Jack will be missed. Our condolences to his family.
