I have many fond memories of “Mr. Milner” from my high school days playing 4 seasons of sports. He was in his element in any athletic arena and surrounded by young people and families. Sportsmanship, teamwork, integrity , dedication and fun were the main goals, winning was the cherry on top!
Years after graduation (‘81), it was a wonderful surprise to find that Jack’s daughter Kerri had moved in across the street! We were able to connect on and off through the years…, catching up here and there. My most recent standout memory of Jack was at Jake’s graduation. Of course it happened during Covid, so there we were, some in cars, but family and neighbors spread out along the street celebrating Jake! Jack happened to stand right next to my mailbox, and we got to catch up again, as it turned out, for the last time. But boy, was he so proud of his Jake! And of all of his kids and grandkids! He was telling me all about each of them, where they were right then and what they were doing and how amazing they are! Going to miss you Jack, but not as much as your awesome family.
