Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Holland family during this difficult time.

We have gotten to know Jack well the last 8 years through Sunday School and having meals and "blizzards" together. We were always amazed at Jack's interest in new technology in his field. He was always interesting to talk to and will be truly missed. We love you

Jack was a true blessing to our family, especially to my father Angel. Jack was like a father to him. For 30+ years he always looked out for my dad and I will forever be thankful to him (and his family) for that. Jack will be truly missed. Keeping his entire family in my prayers.

The picture of Uncle Jack is exactly as I see him in my mind's eye - always smiling that broad smile.
I am so sad to hear he has left us and send love and strength to Aunt Billie Jean, my cousins and all of the Holland family.

We are deeply saddened to learn of our dear Uncle Jack's passing. He will always be remembered with respect, admiration, and love. We extend our sympathies, prayers and love to our Holland family.

Please know we are deeply saddened by this news and that prayers are being lifted up for the entire Holland family. Bryan and Steve, your Dad was a wonderful man and will be greatly missed.

On behalf of Jack, he and his entire family are deeply grateful for the long-term love and support of friends and extended family, particularly this past year. Dad died as he lived - determined, strong and faithful. May we all take the lessons of his life forward into our own. Most sincerely, daughter Paula and son-in-law Jim
