It was a pleasure to have Jack as our friend. We had many laughs together. He was the best kind of friend a person could have. A true friend, an honest friend, a forgiving friend. We will remember his honesty and love.

I am so sorry for your loss. My condolences. God bless you.
I am very sorry for your loss. Mr. Shafman was my patient many times at Lahey Clinic while he was admitted to 6 east and I loved caring for him! There are not too many appreciative patients anymore and he always was! My friend Tammy and I visited him every time he was admitted, even when he wasn’t our patient, just to say hello. We saw him last Thursday while he was in the ccu…and even though he was having a hard time breathing he wouldn’t stop talking to us!!! He will be sadly missed!
