Bruce Knight
What year would this be? As a kid I used to see Jack either driving Kennedy’s big red buses (we never had a car), or driving a taxi. He always made a point of making everyone feel important!
Then I saw him more recently at Granger House, he had dementia and was in failing health- but still that cheerful wave that was so unique to him. I was visiting my mother (Mary Knight) at that facility, used to get down there from here in the US every year until COVID. I would think it was in the 2016-2018 range when he was at Granger, then in 2019 I heard that he had passed. What a great guy!

Ian Buchanan - Really lucky jack.

Bruce Keddie - Our family home is almost in the photo as we lived directly over the back fence of his house. We were 58 Shakespeare St and can remember talking to him over the back fence.

Heather Gaulter - One of the best was Jack, back in the day we used taxis heaps, they were all so caring helpful, all great guys.Ian Buchanan
