This smiling picture of Jack brings a smile to our faces as we remember Jack and Carol and the beautiful family they had. We are so grateful to have known the Ellis Family through the St. Ignatius Parish. Those were formative years for our family and the Ellis were a significant part of that chapter in our lives.
Love,
Janie and Bob Mericsko
