He was an Associate Member of Brandeis Boca Raton and Brandeis Trails of Delray and constant attendee of their lectures. He was a constant attendee (three times a week) of Temple Anshei Shalom in Delray Beach lectures that were given by retired and not retired professors or experts in their topics.

When in Delray Beach Florida and in Cleveland Jack and Bobbi consistently attended lectures on Israel, Middle East and American Presidents, American History and Jewish history.

His collection of old movies on DVD kept him on his stationary bike every day. Jack loved musical theater - anywhere. He attended art shows and little and big theater at every opportunity.

He surprised many when he performed in the singing and dancing shows when he lived at Huntington Pointe, Florida in 2016 and 2017.

His Jewish literature (in English) library was larger than those of some synagogues. He read all of them and reread many. His first taste of fiction came when he started reading on Kindle.

Jack would never allow anyone to schedule him to be anywhere when The Ohio State Buckeyes were playing football.
