Where to begin. such fond memories of singing an laughter. I am sure going to miss Jack's Birthday song. Also going to miss laughing so hard my sides hurt at the stories of Jack and Dad as crazy young boys. Dad will miss his life long pal and their monthly rides in the country, along with precious moments they spent together through life and toward the end of Jacks. So happy my girls were able to meet the man who taught me so much about life. Will always cherish the canoe trip where he dumped me in the cold river while trying to get over a bever damn. Jack: Thank you for being such a wonderful part of my life. I will miss you dearly.

Rosene,
Susie and I were glad to see you the other night and as everyone so saddened of Jacks passing. Jack will always hold a special place with us. I remember the many talks he and I shared especially during those early years of my political career. He has been and always will be a great inspiration to us. Jack was so quiet the way he went about his career and never looked for that pat on the back. He has touched the lives of so many through his work, public service, and in his life and don't think half the people would ever know who the real man behind the scenes really was. Along with being a great family man to all of of you he was a great friend and human being to the rest of us. Jack will be missed by many but not forgotten.
Tommy and Susie

Dear Rosene and Family, It has been a little over thirty years since we lived at 245 Main Street, Ft. Plain. Our girls: Jennifer, Colleen, and Andrea were in school with Mark and Patty, and Dick served on the Board of Education with Jack. Dick said that Jack blamed him for getting him on the Board, and then we left town ! We were so sorry to hear of Jack's passing on December 23rd. Our sincere sympathy to you and your family. With fond memories, Sandy and Dick Eldredge, and Family

So many weekends spent with Mark and Patty at the house in Fort Plain. So many dinners sitting at the Stickley table in the dinning room. The weekends cross-country skiing. I will never forget the trip to North Carolina that our families shared together.
Jack had a profound effect on my development. He was always patient and treated me like an adult, even from my earliest memories. In some cultures it is the responsibility of your father's brother to help raise you as a son. Jack definitely was that brother to my father in my childhood. I always felt like a part of the Cunnan family.
It is with great sadness I think about his passing. Mark, Patty, and Rosene, please know that you are in my thoughts and I will always cherish the memories we share as an extended family.
Love,
Bobby

Dad...One of my favorite moments with you was when you told me it was time to take the training wheels off my used purple huffy bike with the white banana seat..I pedaled up the back road to the high school parking lot with you holding on the back bar jogging along behind me...when we got to the flat lot, you told me to pedal hard and balance..I remember telling you "Dad, Don't let go!!"...I pedaled and kept looking behind me..you were still there. As you told me to keep looking ahead and pedal faster, I remember the breeze in my face and feeling a little proud of myself...I looked behind me to tell you how excited I was and you were no longer holding on to me...you were way back behind me standing in the parking lot watching me go!....I think I remember being upset for a few seconds until I saw you smiling at me...you must have been proud of me too. Thank you for always being there for me..knowing when to hang on to me and when to let go!! I love you!!

Jack was a wonderful person. As his HS classmate at Solvay, I was fortunate to spend time with him during the episode when his father was recovering from a leg injury. I got to know them both quite well.
I love the picture that you have put on the website. I know he must have been a wonderful husband and father. More than a half a century has passed and I can still see him, funny, determined, and generous. May you be consoled in your grief of his loss. Know that others grieve with you.

Dear Rosene,
We are very very sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
The many memories of Jack go all the way back to the days at Solvay High School. But, probably the happiest time was celebrating at the 40th Reunion when Jack's delightful sense of humor left us with wonderful memories that we cherish to this day. We deeply missed him at the 50th Reunion and wished he and you could have been there.
Jack is resting in peace now but he will live in all of our hearts forever.
God bless you and your family.
With our deepest sympathy -

It was with great sadden that I learned of Jack's passing. We had a lot of great times together often with Jack sitting just in front of me as classmates at both Solvay and Clarkson. He loved cars and was always making sketches of hot rods and dragsters. Jack was determined to be an Civil Engineer and thought Clarkson suited him because there were no girls at that time in class to distract him. Oh yes, we did enjoy afew brews together. My condolances to his family and many friends who's lives have been enriched from knowing Jack.

Jack's passing has left a large hole in my life. What a good-natured guy! What a good friend!
We spent many hours exchanging views and trading knowledge in ego-less conversation.
Usually, it was about engineering and science or politics.
Sometimes it was about mortality. Alas.
I was awed by his projects: putting a new foundation under his house; replacing the engine in his Healy...
Goodbye, Jack, I hope this passes your sentimentality filter.

Dear Rosene,
I have many pleasant memories of my time with Jack. I remember the time we went to Avery's, cross country skiing. Jack with his well waxed wood skis. In the spring, we would enjoy the weather while skiing. I remember the bike rides I took with him south of Fort Plain. We had many fine days on fishing trips in New Hampshire and Massachusetts, and fine dinners of cod, pollock and haddock. I will miss the many parties at his house. One with 75 guests and Jack supplying the beer. Jack lived life to the fullest and I will miss him!!

Forty plus years of memories come flooding back at a time like this...our families had some wonderful times together...all the camping trips which usually included a hike of some kind and just goofing around in your kitchen, making pizza or relaxing on the porch...the kids grew up together and that will always be a special memory for them. A happy, pain-free Jack is looking down on us now encouraging everyone to smile and celebrate his life.
You, Mark and Patty and the whole family are in our thoughts and prayers. With friendship and love, Linda and Bob

Rosene and Family,
We are so sorry for your loss. I don't know where to begin with the many memories that Dick and I have of our time with Jack. We had fun with him at the Patterson's when his Mom would play the piano, we went on canoe trips in the Adirondacks. I'm sure most memorable is the camping trip he talked me into with the four of us. Serving on the Fort Plain Board of Education with him was an honor. He always did a wonderful job in anything he put his mind to. It has been years but we still talk about him and the good times we had with new friends that we meet. You have wonderful memories, hold on to them and they will get you through this time.

I will be thinking of you every year on our birthday, and when I graduate in the spring. I will never forget when you took me to see the waterfalls, when we road in the jeep, or when we went in the canoe. You always made me laugh when you would ask which UNO card was blue or green, but that was our favorite game. I promise that I am trying to be strong for mommy, but we both miss you tons.

My deepest sympathy to all of you. Jack was an all-around good guy and certainly someone you didn't forget. I always admired him for his dedication to public health and, particularly, to his family. I'll never forget the meeting where he arranged for us to go to Saltsman's Hotel for dinner. I think we all agreed it was one of the best meals we ever had. And, of course, Jack was the MC for the night. It was a great evening. Thanks, Jack. It was a privilege to know you.

The memories are many of the time spent with Jack at the Amsterdam Watershed. Although he was doing his job with the health dept.it was more like two friends getting together for that one special day a year that they had planned. He will always have a special place in my heart. So long old friend until we meet again in a better place. Jack was such a special person. We kind of grew up together in our jobs.
