Just learned of your loss. Jack was such a wonderful father and husband and I wish we lived closer so I could be there for you Michelle. I'll keep you all in my prayers.

I worked with Jack for many years on various projects through out the country. My condolences, he will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Mary Ellen and all of the O'Neill family,    I never met your brother but wish to express my sympathy for his passing.  This physical existence isn't easy.  Transcending to another dimension is a change that is difficult to accept. But the love of family and friends continues. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I met Jack through Ed and playing golf (summertime trips).  He was always smiling and a friend to everyone.  I have missed Jack on recent trips and will now forever thank him for some future shots (I know he will be there).  My condolences.  Jack,Michelle and all of the children are in my prayers.

Every memory I have with Jack brings a smile to my face. Jack is a great friend who listened to my problems and loved to share stories about his family. I will forever cherish the times we laughed together. Rest in peace my friend...you are truly loved.

I will miss - but never forget - my friend, my "brother from another mother" - Ed Klemm

My condolences to the O'Neill family for your loss. Jack was a good friend and well remembered from his days at St. Bernadette's grade school back in PA.

To Jacks family I grew up and went to grade school with Jack.My memories of Jack were like others in the class  just a whole lot of fun playing football in the mud at nelsons track.He was a big part of our lives growing up.That smile on his face in this picture is just how I remember him growing up.
 Rest in peace my friend,till we meet again

To Jack's family~ my heartfelt condolences. I worked with Jack for many years. He was a wonderful, kind helpful friend. We will be deeply missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. Your son did you proud today~

Michelle, Aubrey, Erin, Michael and Kevin, My deepest sympathy goes out to you all. Although we live many miles apart Jack has been my best friend since freshman year in high school at Prep. I am so glad I spoke with him last week. He was so proud of his family. He also was ready to meet The Lord. He had a good run against his cancer. I wish he had many more years to go! God bless you all! Tara sends her regards since she could not attend today.

Sorry for your loss. You (Mike) and your family are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Our prayers are with the family.  Feel like I've know Jack, from Ann speaking of her brother so lovingly!!!  He was a strong person and a fighter - may he rest in peace knowing how much he was loved.  The Spinellis

My condolences to you and your family. I worked with and for Jack at Mobil/Tenneco/Pactiv. He was a great person and boss. A very intelligent and thoughtful person. One of the best bosses I have ever had. May he rest in peace.

So sorry for your loss. I worked with Jack for many years at Pactiv and have fond memories of our bicycle rides to work together. He got me back on the bike after many years and I know he inspired others to do the same.

Jack, 
We are going to miss your great smile and quirky sense of humor around the neighborhood.  It was a pleasure and a privilege to know you.  Our thoughts are with Michelle, Aubrey, Erin, Michael and Kevin.

Jack...
I was saddened to hear the news that you lost your battle. Together we had many laughs on the golf course, mostly at my expense... but that's ok... It was a pleasure to have walked with you, however briefly!

Rest in peace Jack you will be missed my friend. Condolences  to you all

Mark & Terry Stoyas and Family

Michelle and Family:
I am so very, very sorry to hear of Jack's passing.  I have fond memories of time we spent together years ago when you lived in Pennsylvania.  You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Michelle and Family, I am so sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed my "Garden Catch Up Chats" with Jack.  He was a wonderful, kind man and I will miss his smiling face and kindness.

My deepest sympathies to Jack's family, friends and co-workers. I have had the opportunity of working with Jack on a few projects at Pactiv and it was always a pleasure. The pain of loss is great for those left behind. He will always be in your heart.

Dear O'Neil family,  I had the pleasure of working with Jack both here in Lake Forest and briefly in Covington, GA.  I always looked forward to seeing Jack, as he was a such a positive and happy person.  We sometimes spoke about our respective families, and Jack always lit up when sharing stories.  He was so proud of you all and felt very blessed!  Our prayers are with you.

Jack and I had great times together at the Prep and I am so sad to hear this news. You are all in my prayers.

We'll always remember Jack as a great Father and role model to the Family he loved and led.  We share your loss.

Jack was a great guy growing up on North Concord. We started a street hockey team call the North Concord Flyers. We didn't win many games but it was great playing across the street in the church parking lot.

 I dont know if Jack has ever talked about his friends from grade school,but I can tell you  that when ever we have a reunion or a get together he is always one of the first  to be asked about .Although its been many years since we played football at nelsons track,  the fun we had there together will forever be in my heart and never forgotten. Im so sorry I never knew how sick he was .Last time we talked he said he wanted to get in touch with us and go out for a few beers when he came  back to town.If there is anything I can do  please ask .I pray that God gives you all the strength to handle such a loss.I also  pray that Jack  has found peace and is in no pain
