I first "met" Jack online when I was doing genealogy research on my family, he told me we were cousins,and his wife was also a cousin of mine. That was many years ago and at a family reunion here in Arkansas I finally got to meet them both in person! Rest in peace cousin Jack!

Jacks been an inspiration to me, I went into the military thinking I could be a meteorologist. He’s been a blessing to many as a scholar to our family trees. He will be missed by many especially his best friend coreen . Prayers for his family, May God Bless !
