Jack was born in Hershey, Pa., and came to Princeton from Hershey High School. He majored in history, was a member of Quadrangle Club, and was associate managing editor of The Daily Princetonian and vice chairman of the Campus Fund Drive.

After graduation Jack spent a year in the family poultry business and then two years in the Army, mostly in Indiana. Another year in the family poultry business convinced him that his true interests lay elsewhere and he entered a training program at Mellon Bank that led to a 30-year career with that institution.

Travel was always a major interest, and after his retirement Jack and his partner traveled the world, from New Zealand to Machu Picchu and from the Dalmatian Coast to the Galapagos Islands.

Jack died Sept. 6, 2017, at Passavant Hospice. He is survived by Jim Thompson, his partner of 16 years.
