Jack was an early mentor in my career at McGladrey. I specifically remember him trusting me in meetings with some of his most important clients when I had only been there a year or two. After he retired I worked with him on his own tax return for many years. He was a smart man with high integrity and trustworthiness. My condolences to Charlie, Ann and the rest of the family.

I did not know Mr. Heins but knew of him by his reputation and through others. His was a life well lived. To Charlie, Ann, and his family please accept my deepest sympathy.

Jack was a man who was a friend to many. I enjoyed sharing lunch with him on many occasions. I appreciated his insights and getting to know his family. Jack made a difference in many lives. I join in celebrating his life. William C. Jacobson - Fellow Resident, Cottage Grove Place

I want to share how deeply sorry I am for your loss. Jack was truly one of the most special people I’ve ever had the privilege of caring for. From the very beginning, he treated me with such kindness and warmth that I often felt like I was talking with my own grandpa. He had a way of making every conversation meaningful—whether we were talking about little everyday things or sharing stories, he always made me feel appreciated and heard. What I will remember most about Jack is how positive and thankful he was. Even on the harder days, he found something to smile about, and he never failed to express his gratitude. That gratitude wasn’t just words—it showed in the way he made people around him feel valued and cared for. Spending time with him reminded me daily of the importance of patience, kindness, and gratitude. He left such a lasting mark on my heart, and I will carry those lessons with me forever. I also want to say how incredible his family is. Every time I saw you all with him, I was struck by the love and support you gave him. The way you surrounded him with care and presence is something I truly admire, and it was a gift for me to witness such a strong, loving family. It’s clear that the joy, positivity, and kindness Jack carried came from the life and love he shared with you all. Please know that I am keeping each of you close in my thoughts and prayers. Jack will always hold a special place in my heart, and I feel so thankful to have known him. With love and deepest sympathy, Abbe Wagner
