So sorry to hear of Jack’s passing. I grew up at Kent First Presbyterian. Agnes was my Sunday School teacher and later on when I was an adult, served on session together. I have many fond memories of Great Escapes and church picnics with both of them. He will be missed.
We are so sorry to hear of Jack’s passing. He was a good buddy of Rudy’s when they were growing up.
Your dad always made me feel welcomed as part of the family.

To the Hewes Family:
My sincere condolences to all of you and your family. Jack was a multi-talented man with many interests and the man that he was will always be remembered fondly by all.
Be at peace now Jack, you and Aggie are together now as it should be. You will be missed forever.
Our thoughts and prayers are with your family during this time of sorrow. We shared your father’s love of the organs and the music they produced. His organs will bring joy to many over the years to come. We will all miss his skilled hands, creative genius and dedication to building the best and most authentic organ possible.
