Jack Jr & Dawson Jack Nunes

Hi Dad,
Jack Jr here again and I just wanted to stop by and say Happy b-lated Birthday. I have been feeling your presence all month for some reason or maybe I just subconsciously knew your birthday was coming up. I don't know? Well what do you think of your grandson, he even came out with red hair for some reason, probably after mom I think. I really wish he would have been able to spend time with you. He loves to fish and I think I remember you liking catfish for some reason or other....

DAD, HI, IT'S ME (JACK JR), HERE IT IS 2006 AND I STILL MISS YOU LIKE IT WAS JUST YESTERDAY,WHEN WE WERE SITTING AT THE CAFE AND TALKING ABOUT THE MANY YEARS WE LOST. YOU KNOW I HAD LUNCH THERE WITH SIS, SITTING IN THE SAME SEAT THAT WE ALWAYS SAT AND FOR SOME REASON I KNEW YOU WERE THERE TOO. I KNOW THIS BECAUSE WHEN SIS REACHED OUT TO ME AND TOUCHED MY HAND, I FELT A PRESENCE ENTER ME WITH SUCH FORCE THAT IT FELT LIKE "GOD" ENTERING ONE'S SOLE. THE FORCE WAS SO GREAT THAT I THOUGHT I WAS...

Sis and Janna

Hi Dad,
Its September 20 only 2 more day till your birthday. I'am having a real hard time knowing that your not going to be here so we can share it with you. I have shared your birthday with you ever since I can remember. They say that things get easier with time but I dont think thats all true. There is not a day, a hour or even a minute that I dont think of you and wonder what you are doing. I only hope you know how much I miss you and Love you. You were always there for me since...

DEAR SIS AND SISTERS,
I JUST WANTED TO THANK YOU FOR CALLING ME AND FINDING ME IN TIME. I DIDN'T KNOW MY FATHER VERY WELL BUT THE SEVERAL VISITS THE LAST FIVE YEARS AND THE TIME I GOT TO SPEND WITH HIM WHEN I WORKED IN MERCED WERE PRICELESS TO ME. BY THE TURNOUT AT THE FUNERAL I KNOW MY DAD TOUCHED MANY PEOPLE AND I WOULD LIKE TO THANK ALL OF YOU THAT CAME UP TO ME AND TOLD ME SOME OF THE MANY STORIES WITH MY FATHER. THAT SOMEWHAT FILLS SOME OF THE VOIDS IN MY YOUTH. I LOVE THE...

Dear Sis and Janna,
Its not easy to say good bye to a long time friend. I would drive by your house every day and wonder whats Jack doing? So busy trying to make a living only stopped on rare occasions.I was in Albuquerque,NW when I recieved the bad news. Jack was a joy to be around, never saw him mad. We went fishing and roping together and each trip was a new experence.We all lost a true friend and companion. Heaven will be a more exciting place now.
Sincerely,
Bruce

Sis, my thoughts are with you. Jack was family to me as we all grew up together in the Buhach area. We were all so close. My brother Eddie looked up to him. I remember when they use to milk cows together as Jack took Eddie everywhere with him. He will be missed by all of us. My family loved Jack and we will miss him very much. He was so funny, always a smile on his face and I will always remember him that way. We love you Sis and if you need anything we are here for you.
Love Dee...

Sis,
I am so sorry to hear about Jack's passing away. I think about you both so often, even thought it's been a long time inbetween, and I reminess about the wonderful memories we had together.

Just the other day, my son & I were in the meat market, and he asked, "Mom, what is cat fish?" I told him, that it that it had to be cooked 'just perfect' and I thought about those days when we had all fished together for cat fish, and you and Jack cooked it to the most perfection...
