Jack was my major professor during my masters degree in Health Education and Health Promotion and he was terrific!

I also knew Jack during the time I served as an administrator in Human Resources—he was wonderful to work with and a great encourager. So sad to learn of his passing.

It's so sad to learn of Jack's passing. He was my Major Professor at the University of Tennessee, and much more. He was my mentor, my encourager, and most of all my friend. Jack truly made a difference in my life, and I'm better for having known him. He'll be greatly missed, but will always hold a cherished place in my heart. My thoughts and prayers go out to Jack's Family and Loved Ones as they say their good-byes to this very special man.
