On graduation, Jack went to McGill University College of Medicine to earn a medical degree in 1963 and complete his internship in 1964, followed by a two-year stint as a medical officer in the U.S. Coast Guard. Jack then received a National Institutes of Health fellowship for two years at the University of Chicago. He completed his residency in surgery there in preparation for his career in academic medicine.
Jack moved to Loyola University Chicago to a position as professor of surgery. He spent his 30-plus-year career there, rising to chief of the Division of General Surgery, until his retirement in 2002.
He continued to pursue his passions of many years: tennis, classical music, and fine French wines, shared with Brenda, his actress wife of 62 years, until his death March 10, 2023. Jack and Brenda were devoted dog lovers and longtime supporters of PAWS Chicago as volunteers in its animal welfare activities. We send our sympathies to Brenda, their two sons, and all the family in their loss.
