Our deepest condolences to the Witzgall family on your loss.
Dear Witzgall family, I wanted to extend my condolences. I was one of Jacks neighbors. While I didn't know Jack well we often shared conversation on the elevator or roof deck. It was evident that Jack was an avid sports fan. I hope that you have fond memories to comfort you during your time of sorrow. John A.
I knew Jack for a few years in Lawrence at WM. He always had something interesting to say, and loved to share stories and knowledge with everyone. He visited the office so much he should have been on our payroll. Regardless of the battles he was fighting, he was way too young to go. Rest In Peace, Jack. Blessings to your family.
I'm so sorry to hear this...way too young. You will always have happy memories to hold on to. Heidi, hugs to you & your family. Heidi, you were a great babysitter!
Prayers for the family ~ we were high school pals and I only have good memories of Jack. May he rest in peace.
Jack will be missed. I had the pleasure of knowing Jack from 2009 - 2013 while I managed WM. Jack was witty, always had a story for me and on more than one occasion a gift. Rest easy Jack! Colleen
To the Witzgall family, was deeply saddened upon hearing of Jack's passing, my old St. Mike's/NAHS buddy. Will cherish the fun times growing up with him in good ol' NA. My heart is with you, God bless. Paul Luciano
Jack, such a bright and quick witted young man. He was smarter than most , yet he was unable to overcome the temptations of everyday life. I saw and spoke with him when he was at the top (National Honor Society, Deans List , etc.) It all came so easy to him. I also saw Jack at the bottom , on the streets, unable to find his way back to the mainstream. We can all learn a lesson about life and living from Jack. Not everyone can survive one day at a time. Every day has a night and the night becomes the day. Rest in peace my friend .I will will miss you and a long list of friends who I represented during the hills and valleys of life.
For the past four years, Jack and my family have lived just 3 doors down from one another. He ALWAYS said "hello" ... and usually then some. Jack had the gift to gab. His stories made me chuckle and/or think! He will be missed! May he rest in peace and may you all find comfort as you grieve. Betsy Apt. 533
My dear cousin Geraldine, so sorry to hear of the passing of your son. Your whole family is in my thoughts and prayers!
