Sorry to hear about Jack passing. I was at Songs with him in my early career, and have one funny story about Jack and Mary, that I have kept to myself most of the time. I know, that's rare for me, but I will tell all now.
Peter Knapp was the over all RPM, and while being extreemly educated, Peter was a common knowledge challanged person. Jack's wife Mary, got out of the nuclear Navy, and was hired at Songs. Some whiney, bedwetting, snivvling cry baby, complained that there was some rule about having a husband and wife working in the same dept. Peter said, and this is a direct quote..
"I don't know what to do, I either have to lay Mary, or Jack off." For several seconds, you could have heard the perverbial pin drop... then the unstoppable laughter broke out, with Peter completely at a loss for what he said. You can all ask Russell Gray, and John Albers if you have any doubts to the verasity of this story...
