  10. Sending my deep sympathy for the family, on Jack’s sudden passing.

    I recall the times I met Jack in Las Vegas, after he dug up a few of his soup cans from the backyard, and made the trip to one of his favourite places.

    He had so many happy days (and yes, frustrating ones, as any game player does) there. I will see him every time I pass certain Video Poker machines in Harrah’s and at the RIO, or when I sit down to enjoy my next meal at the All American Grill. I spoke to him just before his last trip, via email, when he asked about various changes at the RIO.

    Those of us who knew him as Jackincols, when he was at home and posting on the LasVegas4Ever boards, remember him as a caring, informative and humour-loving friend. He positively glowed, right across cyberspace, when he spoke of his beloved grandbabies..

    A true gentleman in every sense of the word, Jack will be missed by many friends that you have never met, but who will keep his memory alive, because he touched them in some way.

    With a heavy heart, I wish you peace and healing…

  14. A very special man has passed away. Jack loved his children, grandchildren and extended family in Columbus. You were always first in his heart. Jack was articulate and offered his insightful opinions on the boards. Las Vegas has lost one of its biggest fans. I was lucky enough to meet with him a few times and chat lots online.

    Jack, you were respected and will be missed. Rest in peace.

  16. Very sad news for all of Jack’s online friends. I just had an exchange with him on the Vegas4Ever board about my diabetes. He was a treasure, a resource, and a good humored friend to all of us there. I’ll miss his MyVegas play as well. He got a good bit of fun (and frustration) out of that game and his activity helped many of us have the chips to win free nights or food in Vegas. We could always count on him to share both his insights and his winnings. He’ll be missed.

  27. I first “met” Jack on Vegas chat boards. Thankfully I also was able to meet Jack in the flesh in LV on two occasions. We had several things in common and talked a number of times on the board and in private IM. My heart goes out to his children and grandkids whom I know he loved very much. If you happen to find a bag of horse “apples” at his place they are from me. RIP my friend.

  29. We were shocked and saddened to hear of Jack’s passing. Although we all knew he was in poor health we thought he would go on forever. We met Jack many times at meets over the years, shared a few meals with him and thought very highly of him. You will be missed, Jack. The two things he loved most in life were his family and Las Vegas. Sincere condolence to all of you.
    Nancy and Jeff
