    Sincerest sympathy to Jack’s family & friends.
    Years ago, I met Jack when he lived in Exeter and I had the privilege to be his PSW up until he went to hospital then Queensway.
    Jack was very easy going.
    Praying for peace and comfort for all.
    R.I.P. Jack
    Once a month when I drive through St Mary’s, I think of Jack and those hot dogs from Hearn’s that he enjoyed.

    I am so sorry for your loss! Jack was a kind, gentle, quiet soul with a lovely smile. A bright man.
    I hope it’s okay to say but in caring for Jack in the past few years I think Jack looked forward to the heavenly journey where all the music he wants to hear will fill his heart and ears forever more. RIP Jack, sing with the angels.
