The world has lost a kind spirit and incredible radio astronomer. I got to know Jack while working for Jill Tarter, his wife, and he gave me a ride to our telescope in his Cessna, and was always happy to share stories of Berkeley/astro in the 60s. RIP

He also may or may not have told me to take the yoke of the Cessna one day and let me fly a circle around Mt Lassen, but I ain't telling.
What a great guy.
