Jack (John) was my brother in law.He lived with us for about 5 years.He helped remodel the basement,and other things around the house.After he left us he moved in with his aunt Cack. He looked after her until she died. He was a good man with a heart of gold, and I will miss him.

Still have fond memories as a kid going to the zoo and out to dinner eating ribs before going to Sox games and the occasional Cubs game I still have the baseball with the whole Cubs team autographs and Harry Carry on it that you helped me get during one of the games even though it was a sad time it was a good memory to stand at the bar and drinking a beer with you when grandpa boots (your dad) passed away and still to this day I can't figure out why we called you uncle jack when your first name is John.....a lot of great memories you will be missed
