Not sure what to say?

John Nylen was born to the generation of real men, and he lived his life with the spirit of that great generation of Americans, and the pride of The United States Marines. I will miss his wonderful stories, his insight, his sense of humor, and the example he set for how to really live ones life... with honor, passion, common sense, and an optimism that can overcome any of lifes hardships. It was truly an honor and a privilege to know him and to be a part of his family, and he will always hold...

My Uncle Jack was such a special man, and I will miss him very much. I have many fond memories of him while growing up in Chicago and also as an adult in Texas. He loved Marie more than words can say, and my prayer is that they are together in heaven now. When he called me on the phone, he always said, "Remember that I love you", before we said goodbye. I love you too, Jack.

We only just met this past year, and I'm really glad we did. I'm also glad it worked out that Lynne and I got married, and you were able to know about it. Rest in Peace.

Daddy,
I will always remember how you used to tell me to use my "common sense" and "good judement". Although I didn't always listen, I will forever remember those words.
