Over many Orientations I had occasion to hear Jack tell the story of the JVC. It did not take long to recognize the stories were not history, but spirit. Thank you Jack for your masterful talent of bringing alive the spirit on which the Corps was founded and for all the subsequent spirit you shared with us.

I saw the light of Christ in Jack’s eyes the first time I met him. It brings tears to my eyes every time I remember that moment. Thanks be to God for us to experience his spirit on this earth. My husband Fred Fulton and I cherish his blesssing everyday.

Knew Jack most of my life, he was family. I will miss him dearly.

Thanks, Jack, for always dreaming big and for sharing your vision of a more peaceful, just world by encouraging thousands of us to get “Ruined for Life” through the Jesuit Volunteer Corps and other ministries. Your friendship was, and is, pure gift. I am so grateful for the profound influence you had, and will always have, on my life.

We’ve witnessed the passing of a saint. I’m glad we were friends…
