My Dear Uncle Jack, (and Aunt Silvia)
Have given me such fond memories. The
warmth gentleness and fun loving way he
shared everything he knew, delighted me as a child
and later an adult. He loved his family above
ALL. The world was a good place where he lived.
Many wondrous tales can be told, and will
always be with us. For now let us remember
that he will act as an intercedent for his family
and friends.
With Loving memories and heartfelt condolences
to all who love and will miss him. May his
memory be for Blessing. May you be comforted
Among the mourners of Jerusalem and Tzion.
Love Bonnie Klar/Hirsch and family

Dear Sylvia and family,
I was so sad to learn of Jack's passing. He and his brother Bill gave my first job almost 60 years ago. I will remember him as kind and soft spoken. Our thoughts are with you.
