Dear Linda and family I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Jack. As you know I had the pleasure of working with him for many years. He was such a wonderful man who loved his family so much , and was ever so proud of all of you. He was always interested in other people as well . A genuine and caring man!!! May the angels guide him safely home. All my thoughts prayers and love !!!!

Linda and Family,
I am so sorry to hear about Jack. Even though we did not see each other for several years, I considered him a good friend and enjoyed our phone conversations. He loved his family and was very proud of his children. He was a good and caring man. I am sorry I can't make the service but you are all in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
