Jack Kiefer was a gentle man with a great capacity for love and friendship; this was combined, however, with a fierce and sometimes combative determination to uphold the exacting standards he demanded of others, but especially of himself.
Jack Kiefer ay isang mahinay na tao na may isang malaking kapasidad para sa pag-ibig at pagkakaibigan; na ito ay pinagsama, gayunpaman, na may isang malupit at paminsan-minsan panlaban pagpapasiya upang sang-ayunan ang mahirap na pamantayan niya hinihingi ng iba, ngunit lalo na ng kanyang sarili.
