  2. Hi Linda. I'm scheduled to be on a train during the memorial, so I'd like to pass on my sincerest condolences. Jack was the kind of person that could never be compared to another. It's been more than a year since he left our motley crew of geeks, but no more than a few weeks since he last came up in conversation. That lasting power of his personality is a legacy for his spirit to proudly own. My heart is entirely with you and your family. -- Jonathan
