I really wish that I could have seen him one more time. We were friends when he lived in Columbus and we lost touch. I’m so sad to have found the obituaries on my search to contact him. My prayer goes out to the family.

Father Jack taught me at Aquinas grade school in steubenville. He was a blessed man always there with friendship and advice. I'll never forget his van "the jolly green giant". God bless.

Fr Jack was so very dear to us. Our family loved him. He was our priest at Corpus Christi and taught us so much about Gods love. Our hearts go out to you all. May he rest in peace. We had such a nice visit with him three weeks ago. I got several pictures I will share with you all. So so sorry.

So sorry for your loss. God will help you through this most difficult time. His reason for being was to serve God and he is with the Lord now. What a great thing!

I remember meeting Fr. Jack, and Mary, when I was 4 yrs. old and living on West 135th St. Many years later, Mary became my best friend, and I watched as Jack was ordained, and my husband Mike and I were there for Fr. Jack's first Mass at OLA parish. You are all in our prayers and especially you , Jack. God bless and keep you.😪. Karen and Mike O'Neill
