Jack was assigned to the Indiahoma HDP when our family was reassigned to Jamaica. Much later, I enjoyed working on the ICA archives with Jack. I loved his passion, self confidence, and total commitment to world service. I was touched by the way he cared for his wife as she declined. In his final years, he continued working on a Wayside Inn in Litibu. I miss his physical presence and know that his words and deeds will continue to touch many lives.

I was just out of university, planning to join the Order in the fall when I would start teaching school. Jack was a very rational team leader with firm opinions. One day we were assigned to the preschool. What an adventure. I saw an entirely new side of Jack and appreciated him in a different way after that day. Journey on is an appropriate send-out, Joan.

Every hour spent was a delight. Martha (Laird) On Nov 29, 2023, at 1:18 PM, Joan via OE <oe@lists.wedgeblade.net> wrote:  You never forget your first RS1 teacher so I can never forget Jack. We both came out of the Cleveland Region. We have journeyed together, shoulder to shoulder for many years. Journey on.
