John Lee "Jack" Knoll

Jack had a significant impact on my life. I appreciate the advice and mentorship I received from him when I was a young man. I worked with him in the early 80's and later followed his foot steps by joining the Navy. I am sure he had a great impact on many others throughout his life and will be dearly missed. So from one sailor to another. I bid you Fair winds and following seas.

I contacted your name sake “Jackie” after found out she could not be there. The “guys” not much left of us contacted the Veterans Affairs and we were able to get her the memorial national cemetery honors gifts. Moreover, the guys and I pitched in for a substantial monetary gift to her. Jack your daughter you talk about al, the time is taken care of! She took care of you we took care of her. God bless.

Well Daddy 'O' - you finally made it!! I can see you and mom in your swing in heaven with your last Male doberman "Ozzy" by your side. Because I was not able to see you off, I am having a special mass in your name with Mom on Oct 13th @ 10:30 am. Remember when you lived on the farm at our home in your camper and we went to Church at St Peter and Paul Catholic church? Mass will be there. Someday I will see you and mom for God said , whomever believeth in me shall have eternal life with me....

Great loss for so many.
