Sad news - Jack (@jdraw) has passed

[Jon]

Jack, a long time Super Moderator at AWF, has passed. He was super-helpful to members and always made positive contributions to help others and run the site. In fact, he was one of the early members, joining over 20 years ago. It reminds us all that our time on this planet is temporary.

Please like this post and comment below to express your appreciation and condolences for Jack, commonly known as @jdraw. He will be missed.

I will let the other forum know.

Jack was involved with a very pivotal thread in my early tenure here at AWF - in addition to providing assistance he introduced me to the PMFJI acronym. He was also the first one to show me how to use the Debug.Print feature and other debug strategies.

He always had a kind word and a helping hand. AWF is not going to be the same without him...

Fair winds and following seas Jack, you will be missed.

Jack was a friend and I will miss him greatly. He was always polite and helpful. I enjoyed chatting and talking with him, and seeing him here on AWF. My heart goes out to his family, especially his wife. Jack died of a stroke.

RIP Jack. A true Gentleman and wise friend.

 

[AngelSpeaks]

It is indeed very sad news. Jack was one of the first developers I met when I joined various forums. Always kind and supportive, Jack brought out the best in other people whilst being very modest and self effacing about his own skills and achievements.

In addition to AWF, Jack was also a moderator at AccessForums.net. I informed the site admin of that forum earlier today.

Very sad, my interactions with JDRAW always stood out as being couched in respect, optimism and positivity. He will be greatly missed.

Very sad news indeed. He was a great asset to the community.

This is very sad news.
For many years I perceived @jdraw as a very helpful active participant in this community with a simple no-nonsense and down to earth approach to his contributions here. I will miss him.
Rest in peace, @jdraw. My condolences to his family and friends.

I haven’t been a member here as long as most but the name has only quality feelings.
Maybe a lesson to all that life is precious and often cut too short. I recall the 2011 memorial service for Excel MVP Nate Oliver (age 35) where his father recognized Nate’s many contributions to tech community. Their contributions live on.
