I am Gregโ€™s brother from Windsor, ON Canada. Jack had made an impression on myself and my immediate family with his kind, gentle way on trips to the shore. He had also formed a solid friendship with my late parents thru their humour and love of a story. He will be missed and our thoughts are with Josephine, Kathleen, Kate, Will & my brother

I worked for Jack when I first started in the insurance industry. He was a wonderful man. My prayers are with his family.
