Jack and his wife live(d) in my small beach town. I would frequently see him having brunch at Dorn's restaurant on the waterfront. He always had a smile and handshake for everyone. Here's a pic of him mugging it up at our table with my friend on one of those Sunday brunches. I'll fondly remember the time I was doing my usual 4x weekly hike up Black Mountain...I was near the top and he was on his way down. He was about 90 then and several inches shorter than my 5'4". He took a moment to pat my huffing and puffing shoulders to say, 'You're doing great! Keep up the good work!" Rest in peace, Jack, and thanks for all the inspiration. You made fitness accessible to all. We'll miss seeing your silver Corvette around town, too! Condolences to Elaine LaLanne, thanks for sharing him with us.
