Jack Schweigert Obituary

I miss Jack's Christmas cards. I actually saved some of them because they bore such a special message that I loved to reread every year.

I missing. I tried calling and no replies. First year not to get a Christmas Card from him
Tried calling again today. Disconnected numbers. Googled him and found this obituary. We went to High School together. Have been in touch every Holiday since 1981 after running into him at a small store in HOVE, Hawaii Island. Sad. I did get a letter from him in July 2024. RIP Jack.

Dear Carly and Scott,
I am a former law school classmate of your dad. I grew up in Erie and currently live there. Jack was one of the most optimistic people that I have ever known. He never seemed to become discouraged when confronted with a challenge. Those who knew him remember his-what seemed to be- perpetual smile. A few years ago my wife and I were in Honolulu and had the chance to have dinner with him. It was a wonderful time and we had a chance to catch up after many years. He obviously made his mark on the legal profession. But, more importantly, he left his mark on all of us who knew him. After reading his obituary one of his former roommates expressed it best for all of us when he said, "my heart is broken". At this difficult time, may God comfort you and your family with the knowledge that your dad touched many people during his lifetime. His life was truly one well-lived.

I met Jack in 1992. He was handing out information flyers at Ala Moana Beach when he ran for mayor of Honolulu. Later, he became my good friend and neighbor. Jack shared many things that helped improve my life and was always there for me. I will miss Jack Schweigert.

We will always remember the wonderful humor and great soul of our fellow Lion Jack. He was a great example of how to live a good life as a good person. Aloha to a Honolulu Lions Club member from your Aloha Pono Lions Club friends Aileen and Howard Deese

I played tennis with Jack on Sundays for the last two years. He played with such grace and humor despite his mounting health obstacles. He send a Christmas card saying how he valued our friendship. I will miss him.

Jack and I were platonic pals. Actually, I think the only reason he visited me was to play with my dog, a beautiful border collie. One day he came and said there was an abandoned boat on the beach that I just had to see. Of course, the dog had to come with us. On the way home, we stopped at Arby's which had just opened in 1968. Bear in mind, at that time a McDonald's burger was 15 cents. An Arby sandwich was 69 cents. He ordered four: two for him, one for me, and one for my dog. No surprise that he was a generous donor to his community. I know he will be missed by many.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

Jack was a good wonderful human being. We are fortunate to have known both him and Valerie.
