    This is a correction to my earlier post: Xerox University Microfilms was located in Ann Arbor, MI., where Jack and I first met. However, a few years later, Jack and I both worked for another Xerox company in Columbus, OH. Although our paths separated as each of us moved from place to place over the years, we kept in touch and maintained our friendship. I miss having a fun, upbeat chat with Jack!

    I've known Jack since the late sixties, when he and I worked for Xerox University Microfilms in Columbus, OH. We've stayed in touch by phone over the years and talked every month or two. He always had something "off the wall" to say, something witty, something funny. It always cheered me up to have a chat with Jack. I last spoke with him just one week before his passing and we had a great talk, just as we always did. I was shocked and greatly saddened when I saw his obituary online. I shall truly miss him and his "Meehanisms". Jack, YOU were a true friend. RIP

    I am the Head Hunter that assisted bringing Jack to Cleveland to join TRW. Jack was one of my favorite clients and we remained friends all these years. Talked on most birthdays, holidays and definitely St. Patrick's Day. Rest in Peace my friend.

    Farewell Uncle Jack! I'm going to miss you. Your frequent phone calls over the last year have helped me through a rough time. While I was aware of some of your health issues, you always wanted to shift the topic to me and my family. Your concern for us was heart-felt and appreciated. Smart, sharp witted, sarcastic, friendly, loyal... just a few words to describe a great Uncle. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family.

    I hired and worked with Jack at TRW’s Corporate HQ in Cleveland, OH in the 1970’s and 1980’s. Jack was the Manager and a leader in our computer-based accounting systems. He accomplished many “firsts”, including reducing the company-wide financial closing cycle from weeks to 7 days. He lived for St. Patrick’s Day ... which he stretched out for several days whenever possible. Well done Jack! R.IP.

    I talked to Jack on the 25th after he texted me a picture where he had fallen. He laughed and told jokes as always, we tried to "out-do" each with our stories, he always won. We made plans to meet for lunch again soon. So enjoyed my time with my friend, he will be missed at our family Christmases. Rest in Peace, my friend.

    We first met Jack in 2006. Since then, he has been a great friend. I played a lot of golf with Jack during the better days. An after golf cordial lunch was always enjoyable. Jacks ability to engage in an always interesting and often humorous conversation was inexhaustible. In the last few years, our relationship has been mainly confined to lengthy phone calls. We never knew served in the military. So I never had the opportunity to thank him for his service. Jack, If you are listening, thank you for your 3 years in the Army. We will sadly miss Jack. He was a warm and true friend with a keen and intellectual wit. May he finally Rest In Peace. Ralph and Susan Pratt

    Jack will be missed by his fellow card lovers at Timberlake Estates. If someone said cards, Jack would jump to ask where and when.
