I hope Jack found some comfort in the days before, and that you find some measure of comfort in the days to come. I was pleased to hear that Martin and Hans-Peter had recent chances to visit. I loved seeing what was done with bmdw.org.
Some moments from our trip to South Africa come to my mind:
Our work took us around the world, but it was your friendship, kindness, and passion for photography that made those trips unforgettable. I am grateful for every moment we shared and will carry those memories with me always. I am honored to have called you both a colleague and a friend, and you will be deeply missed.
Not only was Jack brilliant, he was such a warm and compassionate person and colleague. He was always ready with a warm smile, uplifting greeting and a genuine interest in others. Missing you already.
Twenty seven years of memories are not easy to summarise in one sentence!
Like a candle, the light of a good heart never truly disappears. I will always be grateful for his integrity, respect and passion.
