Way back in the 1970s, a bunch of us would always pester Jack each winter Sunday morning to open' the old Ft. Miles gym so we could play basketball on its huge court. He often joined us - after playing volleyball with John Hughes, George Cole, and others just before we got there. Some of the guys would always talk about him playing in the old adult basketball league that he ran in the old gym. Jack really did make Cape Henlopen State Park into what it is today.
Decades later, Jack and I ended up riding to work together in Dover on a State employee van. He was the same guy as he was back in the Ft. Miles gym: talking about history and sports and always sporting his camera while we sat in the Walmart lot waiting for the van to warm up each morning.
He was a good guy, who everyone knew. My condolences to his family.
