Not sure what to say?

I am saddened to hear about the loss of such a great man. Please except my Heart felt sorrow to your famly.

I remember Jack as always helping others weather he was on or off the track.

Now that he is kicked back with his feet up and relaxing with our Lord, He will be able to enjoy the true life that God has for him.

Thank you Jack for touching my life!!!

Our deepest sympathy and prayers go out to Jack's family at this difficult time. I worked with him for about 4 years, and he was always very pleasant and helpful. He was a great guy and will be missed.

Mark McIntyre & family

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

I want to express my deepest sympathy to Jack's family. I worked with Jack for many years at Vitran and I value the friendship we had. Jack would do anything to help out a friend. He helped me many times with setting up my racecar. Jack had a big heart, he really did! He truly cared about others and would always take the time to talk with anyone who was struggling and he brought with him a calming presence. Jack will definitely be missed by all who knew him.

To the DeJong Family: Randy, Nicole and I are so sorry to hear about Jack. He fought this cancer the best he could. May you all find comfort in knowing that Jack no longer feels the pain and the fear that this disease instilled upon him and that he will always be around you.

Love you guys so much.

Randy, Gayle and Nicole Vaartjes

I am very sorry to hear about Jack. I raced with him @ I-96 raceway. He was an easy going guy who seemed to get along with everyone. If you needed something, Jack was the first to offer, and knew where to find about anything.
