Jack was a dear man and great colleague. He brightened my day so often - a great loss to our community. Condolences to his family.
Jack was always there with a smile and a warm greeting. He made the Carleton community stronger through his friendly demeanor and care for everyone with whom he interacted. I have missed his presence on campus since his retirement. My heart goes out to his family as they mourn this loss.
