Not sure what to say?

Jack was a good Man And a close friend sure do Miss Jack

I am truly heart broken at the loss of this great man and dear friend and my neighbor around the corner for 13 years.. Always there for me and my family whenever there was a time of need. As well as for our entire Community of Clarkton. He always had a warm Hug and would chat for a bit anytime I ran into him... Just can't say enough about Bro.Jack and Miss Betty both. He will be Greatly Missed, and there will be a huge void in the Community forever! Prayers for Sam and family, Tim and...

I just learned of Jacks death - thoughts and prayers to the family. I grew up 2 doors away from Telker Bakery and have many fond memories of jack and the Allen family.

Although I'd only met Rev. Jack I knew from first meeting him when he renewed my mother & father in laws vows that he was a good man. My father in law talked about him several times n other family members also spoke of him and every time n everything I was told was always good.
He will missed by so many. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family, friends & congregation. Heaven gained a special angel when Mr. Jack was called home.

My uncle jack I will always remember you and the time we spent together with aunt betty you are with my dad and aunt and other uncles and my brother I can see you all now. Rip I will truly miss you love your nephew steve

Jack was a good friend and pastor! I'll remember the last time we met in Wal- mart always smiling and the freindly hand shake ! My Heart goes out to the Family and my prayers...

May God bless and guide your family during this trying time.

Jack was a good man. I met him only once, when He and I preached my uncles funeral. He was kind and very thoughtful as though I knew Him for years. Our loss is truly heavens gain

Good Man Great friend never to busy to speak
