A friend of mine died yesterday. Jack Aronson, the man who created Garden Fresh Salsa in his garage in Ferndale that became the biggest selling Salsa in the country, passed away at the age of 68 after a battle with Cancer. He was one of the most charitable people I’ve ever met… always on hand to donate to a worthy cause - including our Salvation Army Bed and Bread Club Radiothon - of which he was a major donor for many, many years. He even went on the Bed and Bread feeding trucks with me many times. Jack was passionate about three things: Family, Helping People and Softball. He could power a ball that went forever.

Our hearts and Prayers go out to his wife Annette, their five children and 16 grandchildren.

Rest In Peace Jack.
