Although it was not quite the “quick check out” as Jack wished, his short time after he was diagnosed with renal cancer allowed us time to plan and reflect on the wonderful, full life we had together. We were truly blessed. We will miss his worldly wisdom and the world according to Jack and his friends Wolf, Anderson and Rachel from CNN will never be the same. MIZPAH my love.
