Dearest Jack,
Those of us who had the joy of performing with you on the Royal Viking Ships remember you with Love and admiration. You were so talented and humble at the same time. We had a lot of fun together as we sailed around the world entertaining passengers who Loved your show! Many people remember you with Lawrence Welk, but we were all family onboard the Royal Viking Star, Sea and Sky!
Remembering you always . . . "Adios, Au Revoir, Aufweidersehn . . Good Night!".
Wth Love, Janine Martuscelli

I'm the daughter of Leland Bishop who was in school & the Navy with Jack. Although I didn't get the chance to meet Jack as a adult my brother Cary & I have fond memories of watching Jack on the Lawrence Walk Show and hearing about him. I wanted to express to the family my condolences. Also if you have any pictures or stories of Jack & my Dad l would be interested in seeing them maybe on Remembering Portland. Thank you . My father passed away several years ago.

Like so many others I grew up watching the Lawrence Welk show with my parents. I was fortunate to see Jack perform in Branson - what a showman! So talented. My sincere sympathy to Jack's family and friends. May he rest in peace and thank you for the hours and hours of wholesome family entertainment.

What a great entertainer. We have watched him on the LW show every Sat. night for years. We are so proud that he wanted to be memorialized in his home state. We get to Portland almost every summer for the steam & engine show. God bless his family .
