Mrs. Richens, Mark, and family members I want to say how sorry I am to hear of your loss. I met Jack through the Mason's Wolcott Lodge 60. I always admired him for his energy, intelligence, and if he had something to say "he said it!" He was always a real gentleman. He certainly will be missed by all fortunate enough to him. God bless you Jack, and may you rest in peace. Tony Ostrowski

Claire/Mark/Nancy: i am so sorry to hear of Jack's passing.. we had a great tenure at stafford housing authority for l8 years. he had a great compassion for the elderly and was a sincere person. it was a great pleasure to work with him for that time in my life. there were very few times when we had different opinions, but we always worked at coming to a reasonable conclusion. i will miss his thoughts in many ways and miss his friendship and his warm welcome whenever we met. a serviceman to our country may i say goodbye my fellow comrade and servant to our community.
Claire, we were so sorry to hear of your loss. Our hearts and prayers are with you and your family.k

LOVE FROM JOYCE AND HER FAMILYS
Jack Richens was a good man. His contributions to Stafford were many, and because of his service, Stafford is better for it. Jack had strong beliefs, but whenever he and I disagreed on issues, he was never disagreeable, and i respected him greatly. On behalf of all Staffordites, thank you for your citizenship and commitment to make your community a better place. We will miss you.
Dear Richens' family,
Please accept our sympathy and prayers in the recent passing of your husband and father. Sincerely, Cindy and Doug Minich
Dear Claire and Family -
Our family was so sad to hear the news of Jack's passing. He was a great friend and man. We will fondly remember our summers spent with you all when we were young and then when Chris and I had our own family and we would come to Stafford to visit. Words cannot begin to express how grateful we will always be to you and Jack for your kindnesses and continued care to our parents' graves. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. With much love and sympathy.
