Jack is numble,
Jack is quick; he arranges programs that always click. He's calm and collected as he strolls through Milano, keeping a heavy schedule of things to work ono! With classes for health, for games and Tai-chi, for painting and planting, fixing our taxes for free! He's busy as bumble bees soon buzzing into town, and he accomplishes these goals with never a frown! Has anyone ever heard him threaten or shout even if at 10 a.m. meals on wheels are nowhere about? No, never a mean word, never a scowl even when a movie must be canceled because the weather is foul! His warmth and his gentleness are examples for us all, qualities in national leaders we'd like to install! So goodbye today, Jack, we're a little sad as we part, but not worried about your health - we know you have a big, warm and beautiful heart! April 1, 2011
