Jack's love of country music knew no bounds especially anything ever done by Hank Snow! Jack was a well known country performer in the Toronto area for many years before comming back to his Cape Breton home. For a couple of decades he shied away from performing in public but a few of us finally convinced him to once more grace the stage and join in our local jams, concerts and fundraisers, which he has done in his later years. As a Hank Snow wannabe I have followed Jack around the Hank Snow Festival with people such as Trainor Donovan and Joe Waye and was introduced by him to two of the Rainbow Ranch Boys band, Kayton Roberts and Roger Carroll RIP my friend!
