Our sincere condolences to the Shuford Family. Jack was a gentleman and had a calming soul about him. I appreciated hearing his reasoning
and guidance. It was obvious to recognize that he made a diffence to those he touched.. Rest in Peace Dear Jack Schuford.

We add our condolences to those of our dear friend, Dr. Rene Reeb of Jackson MS. We heard many a wonderful story of Jack from Rene and always knew what a good man he was!
Love,
The Gray-Lewis Family,

I had the great pleasure to meet Jack. Cindy is my long time friend from when we lived in Oakton V.A. In 2013 we moved to Atlanta..there I was able to see him when Cindy would come to visit. I was able to experience his warm and special ways with people. I believe it when you say "He never met a sranger". He and Sandy always made me feel welcomed. He's an accomplished man. I read all his memoirs and marvel at his clarity of events and situations. I know he will be missed and pray that...

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Your dad and I worked together at Operation Shoestring and had many board meetings in his office on North State Street. Shoestring celebrated 50 years this year. Jack would be proud. He was a fine man and an asset to the Jackson community. Spencer and I send our love and condolences.

Very proud to have known such a fine man, he made a difference.

Stephanie, Jeff and family... so sorry for your loss. Though I never met your Dad I know he had to be a caring, loving, full of life person, just because you are his fruit and have these characteristics and so many more.
May God continue to give you peace through your sorrow.
Love you my friend.
