It was with great sadness that Anita and I learned of Uncle Jack's passing. Our condolences go out to you, Mary, and to all the family. We will certainly miss all the great conversations we had at the family reunions and the many other locations over the years.
We will always remember Jack with a great smile, sense of humour and a beer in his hand. May he rest in peace.

I well remember Jack from his days at NRC. Now and then I had to come by to ask him to do some glass-blowing for me, and he was always willing to help. Jack was a cheerful person, and it was a pleasure to go and visit him.
I was at NRC from 1966 to 2000.

My deepest condolences to the Vandenhoff family. I knew Jack from my 33 years at NRC and always enjoyed dealing or chatting with him. He always brought a smile to my face as he always seemed to have a good story to tell. And he was a true gentleman and very professional.

My husband Michael worked with Jack at NRC for many years and was delighted to know Jack again in retirement in Lanark Highlands. We knew Jack to be a very kindly, gentle (and very handsome!) man and we were very sorry to hear the sad news. Our deepest condolences to the family.

Our condolences to Mary, Deb, Mike, Sandra and Jacob on their loss. Jack was a great and wonderful man. He lived a simple and loving life, and shared his love of life with others. His humour, his laugh, his caring of others, and his humility will be sorely missed. Rest in peace, uncle Jack. You lived fully and lovingly! We will miss you.

I was sorry to hear of Jack's passing. I have good memories of our work together in Venezuela, Australia etc., and very grateful to you and Jack for letting me use your truck to help move our daughter, Nora, to Kingston [about 1980] when she was going to Queen's. I also fondly recall your visit to Singapore with your parents about 1983.
Nancy and I send our sincere sympathy to you at this difficult time.
Sincerely, Dick McGregor

Memories of Jack
I had the honour of working with Jack at NRC, and at noon hour we often went for walk and talks. He was always so proud of his children always bragging about their achievements. Meeting Mary brought about a good change in Jack and he became more joyful and true he had many funny stories to tell. He truly enjoyed life. I was always astounded by his glass blowing and often had to call on him for special work for the good Dr. Hertzberg. God bless you Jack and I look forward to good stories in heaven.
