just got back from dinner to find out about this fvcking horrible event. truly gutted; Jack was a phenomenal guitar player, and such a nice a guy as well. i feel fortunate to have met him a bunch of times, but am really sad that i won't hear him play ever again. i know that pretty much no one knows who i am talking about, but please check out his music if you like acoustic guitar playing (strong nods to Fahey et al). he will be sorely missed.

Jack w/ Byron Coley, listening to Damon Krukowski

yeah, i don't know if he had any sort of pre-existing condition. jack was a big guy and the lifestyle of a traveling musician isn't the healthiest (and he was on the road a lot), but still this came as a complete shock.
