There are no words to describe the loss of a man with as much character, self-esteem, knowledge, vision, intuition, the list goes on and on. Jack was and will forever be a legend in not only the electrical manufacturing industry, but to those who he had the pleasure to meet and touch the lives of so many during his 86 years on this earth. God bless you Jack. God bless the Caveney family. You are truly world class in all you do.
