Jack served with the Royal Artillery Regiment during the Second World War, after which he worked for a printer in London publishing leading national media titles including The Sun and The News of the World. He retired in 1983 and moved to Maidstone two years ago when his health deteriorated.
Jack said:
I was also very touched that Bluebird Care remembered my birthday and took the time to visit me.
As I am blind it is very important for me to have a great relationship with my carers, who help me with my personal care needs and medication.
