Wow, that's a name from the past, used to watch his TV show, unfortunately no-one gets out of this game alive.

That is terrible news and my heart sinks. I loved Jacks artwork and his cooking. This is a very sad day in Australian media as well.
Thanks for the memories Jack and you will be in my prayers forever.
Condolences

Last time Jack & I were together he showed me his many fancy cuff links , said the ladies liked that sort of stuff when going to dances .

Jack has a wonderful display of opals in his Broken Hill Gallery ' including those cuff links from his earlier life .

Some of the gold still displayed Jack & I did some deals but he was far to generous regarding the swaps .

What a Great man we have lost '' :brokenh:

We met Jack a number of times, visiting our opal mine camp looking to swap his paintings for opal. He was also guest speaker at one of the opal expo. events in Quilpie.

A true lover of opal, great yarn teller and not too bad an artist. His Spirit will reside in the outback.

Just watched the episode going up the Strezlecki track and in a Sigma or Magna going thru sand dunes etc. Still very informative in many ways.
