Not sure what to say?

Jack was one of a kind. He did it his way which always seemed to be the best way. He was not only an employer, he was a dear friend to our entire family. He treated us like family and we are forever grateful to have known him. We speak of him often. He was a huge part of our lives for many years. We hear some cowboy poetry from time to time and it brings a smile and a memory. He loved his cowboy poetry. He will be forever missed.

Wonderful tribute to a great man. Our condolences to all of the Alder family.

I was sorry to read of Jacks passing. I know how hard it is for all of you to have lost both of your parents. I certainly remember all the things that they did for Loren and our family. I especially remember flying home to Salt Lake for a family wedding with your Dad in his plane and how much I appreciated him for that. I rememeber the great times we had eevry year, going to Bear Lake and then Peoa, to the "cabin", and the fun Christmas parties. Our children remember the bicycle built for...

We saw it coming. You could tell by the sound in his voice. He just ran out of steam. He was a good man, and she was a good woman. He was a wonderful influence in my life - trusting me to fly his plane. I will never forget his generosity and compassion. I'm very sorry for your loss. He was a good friend.

Dear Alder Family;
We were saddened to hear of Jack's passing. We will forever be grateful to Jack and the Alder Family for all they have done for our family over the years. Jack was a wonderful man, a true friend and an extra ordinary boss. It was an honor to have known him and to know him was to love him. He taught us much and he will be greatly missed.
Love to you ALL

Dear friends Steve, Sue Ann, Bruce, Coralie, Ted, Susan and Greg,

So many wonderful memories fill my mind and heart as I have reflected this morning on the lives of your wonderful parents Jack and Kay. Your great dad was a gifted man who reached out to everyone. I was always warmed by his laugh and by his unique way of telling short humorous stories which were always appropriate and which always included lessons for life. He was a mentor in the world of construction and his depth...

Steve and Sue Ann, We send our sincere condolences. Your father's legacy is here--we see him in your lives. Gary and Nadine Riddle

I had the pleasure of meeting Jack at the Alder Summer Party. We had talked about snow college since my daughter was attending there that year. He had made me feel more comfortable about her leaving. I will always be grateful for the knowledge and advice he gave me. He had made a great impact in my life within the short time that I knew him. He will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with the Alder Family.
