My deepest sympathies to the Goldner family. I remember taking Jack's course an Introduction to Social Sciences in 1962(or so) which he delivered with aplomb, humour and a flair for making the subject matter very interesting! He will, I know, be sorely missed by many!

My deepest sympathies to Jack's entire family. Jack was my professor at Sir George Williams in the late 1960's. He was very special & unique then. He truly had a very positive impact on me & I have often wondered about him over the years.

I am sorry to hear of the passing of Jack Goldner. He was my professor at Sir George in my first year in about 1967. He knew my late mother in their youth and he was so pleased to hear regards sent to him when my mother recognized his name. Jack was informative in class, caring and humorous of course. He always made himself available to students when they needed his help and advice. I wish his family strength in dealing with your loss. I am sure that many students will think back to the wonderful time in their life when Jack was their teacher.

My condolences to the family on your loss. Jack taught me as a first year student at Sir George Williams in the 1960's. He was a memorable professor, and to me really represented the combination of good academics and a welcoming environment that Sir George was in those days.
