Dear Margaret and Nancy,

I am so sorry we will not be seeing Jack any more. He was truly a special and kind man. We all looked forward to his visits here at the dental office. He spoke very highly of you both. You brought great joy to his life. Jack will be sorely missed.

I am a friend and neighbor of Jack;s and while walking my dog, I met him. Both of us were Vet's, I was in the USAF and served as a rep for Boeing in Viet Nam, we shared a number of laughable experiences, he also talked about his experiences in PE and had me laughing all the time. I visited him only once in the Home and regret not seeing him more. I will miss him and You have my deepest condolences. I regret I am not able to attend his services.
