Not sure what to say?

I´m sure Jack was the missionary that baptized me in 1952, Calgary, Alberta. I just wanted to let his family know that I have 31 grandchildren, and 73 great grandchildren. All except 2 active in the church. I was sorry to read of his passing but look at what he started.

Jack Frost, what can you say about a guy that was so important in so many fields. He was a foundingGary Bramwell member of the Intermountain West Chapter of the American Truck Historical Society. I saw very little of his art work but he was a true artist when it came to big trucks. He was a very good driver and could rebuild semi tractors from the ground up. He had an old Kenworth Tractor with a Cummins engine under the hood and one mounted back on the frame for show. He had rebuilt both...

My one and only art teacher who did no more and nothing less than give shelter and encouragement to me and others who might otherwise have been overlooked. Heaven bless the Frosts.

Jack Frost was my Art teacher at Mitchell High ('69 - '71) —and far more than that.

I was one of a somewhat unruly group of students that he supported, encouraged and went well out of his way to accommodate. His actions on our behalf helped all of us craft lives driven, fulfilled, and enriched by art.

Our small group have continued to work and learn together ever since those high school days. Jack's support and guidance played a vital role in our lives as artists....

Jack Frost was my art teacher through my high school years at both Wasson and Mitchell, from 1963 through 1966. He was my all-time favorite teacher. I learned from Jack Frost the basics of drawing and painting that I used throughout my working career as a graphic designer and advertising art director. Now in retirement I put his training and inspiration to use every day in my watercolor painting and pencil drawing. Most importantly, he taught me how to appreciate all kinds of art. To this day...

I lived across the street from Jack and Gloria and was childhood friends with Andria and Grant! It was honestly some of the best days of my childhood. With age, I've forgotten a lot, but that is one memory that doesn't fade! Puppets and dress up were always so fun! Playing until after dark when it was safe to play outside. I remember being at the baby shower for Ryan and still have pictures from that day. Thank you for the memories! I know your celebration in heaven with Gloria was...

Cliff and I truly loved them both. He will be missed by many.

I was a student at Mitchell high from 1973-1975 and My. Frost was my Art teacher then and Today I am an artist as well. He was my favorite teacher of all time! I practically lived in the art rooms throughout school growing as I was shy and a introvert, I drew all the time. I worked for both him and Mr. Schrock, The ceramics teacher next door. My favorite story to tell is the day Jack brought some onions to class one day. He arranged them on a table with a cloth underneath and set up the...

Oh my sweet friend Andria and Ryan too - Your Dad was the most amazing man and he will be missed so very much. You both did so much to show him how much you loved him and he was such a great man. All my love and prayers are with you both. Love, Connie #8
