Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry for your loss, and sad that I didn't find out about the funeral until today. I have a lot of great childhood memories with your family, and with Jack, and he will be missed.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this solemn time of mourning. May you find peace and comfort in those who surround you with their love.

I was so sorry to hear about Jack. Everything that is written is so true of my experience with him and his work with ORR. He was such a joy to work with, the epitome of the best state employee. Always there to answer questions and help in any way he could.

We are sad to hear of Jack's passing. We both greatly enjoyed working with him from his first days in Alaska until our retirements. Still, our strongest memories of Jack are of his deep love of his wife and children. His office always held your photos and he was proud to share your accomplishments. Those moments are when we saw his very best smile. He has left a wonderful legacy in all of you.

Dear Helen
We were so saddened by the news about Jack, and are so sorry for your loss. The years we spent together in Montana Medicaid brought us together as friends. Even though the move to Alaska put distance between us, we always held you and Jack as our friends.

We will truly miss him.

I regret missing the memorial service yesterday due to sickness, but I want to take the opportunity to express my deep respect for Jack, as a professional and a gentleman. Blessings to his family and my condolences on your loss.

I attended the Memorial yesterday and came away knowing that your faith in God will continue to sustain you. It was, although heartbreaking, an inspiring tribute. May God continue to bless and comfort each of you. Somehow, I know He will!

Dear Helen and Kids,
I am so sorry for your loss. Jack was a true gentleman as well as a gentle-man of honor and integrity. He just quietly went about doing what a good man should be doing. I always enjoyed his sense of humor, and I always think of him smiling.
My prayers are with you. May the Holy Spirit bring you comfort.
Love, Deanna and Kids

His family and people who knew Jack lost a great guy. I was happy to read Jack was blessed with a large family as he was born to be a great Dad and husband. To get news of a grandchild on Christmas must have kept his brilliant smile on his face for weeks.

Helen and family, our deepest sympathy to your family. You are in our thoughts and prayers during this journey. I always enjoyed the time with Jack during our years in the Army. He was so kind and always had a great attitude. So glad to keep in touch all these years as we always looked forward to the letters from the Nielson's. Jack will be missed.
