Not sure what to say?

Mrs Rooks and the whole family, I am so sorry to hear about Mr Rooks. I have so many fond memories of him when I was growing up. I have to think that he is now in heaven with my Mom and Dad bragging on the kids and grandkids! My greatest sympathy and much love to you all.

We are blessed to have met Jack and the entire Rooks Family. It is obvious he touched the lives of many and set the example for his children and grandchildren. Our heart and prayers go out to your family.

I knew Jack years ago when I was a den mother and he was the Boy Scout leader. He was always kind, helpful, capable, and energetic. Just perfect at what he did. The same in his capacity at the hardware store. He was just a wonderful gentleman.

Mrs Rooks and family, We are so sorry to hear of the death of Mr. Rooks. You will be in our prayers and if we can do anything please let us know. God Bless...

Dear Rooks family,

We were so sad to hear of the passing of Mr. Rooks. We have such fond memories of him during our elementary and high school years. You were blessed to have had such a kind and loving husband/father/grandfather. Just reading this guest book, you know he was a special friend to many, as well. We will keep all of you in our prayers!

Liz, I was so sorry to hear of the death of your dad. I met him a few times and could tell that he loved his family. James and I will hold you in our prayers. Let us know if we can do anything for you or your family.

Dr Rooks and family. May God's arms carry you and your family through this difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

For the Rooks Family.
Our most sincere and heartfelt sympathy to all the Family. Mr. Rooks was a very honorable man and admired by all who knew him. South Jackson has lost a Great leader.

With nostalgic sympathy to the family of a dear friend!
