Not sure what to say?

Dear Leigh,
I am so sorry to learn about the passing of your brother. My prayers are with you and your family for strength, peace, and comfort.

To the Family: I was so sad to hear about Jack's death. I knew Jack through both high school at Coronado and also through attending college at SMU. Jack was a wonderful friend, funny, smart, kind and one of the "good guys". He will be missed very much.

To The Family,

I was very sorry to read about your loss. I hope you can find comfort in the words found at Isa. 33:24 which say that soon no one will say 'I am sick.' You have my deepest sympathies.

John, Carolyn, Leigh, & Rick~ I was most distraught to hear of Jack's illness and then his subsequent passing. He and I had such great times as children on McKelligon! Just thinking of some of our antics brings a smile to my face. I hope that remembering the good times with Jack can do the same for y'all.

I pray that God will attend to your aching hearts and give you peace such as Jack has achieved. I loved him and I love you.

A good fellow and good Phi. I was and my brother Phi's were better having had Jack in our lives those years. We had a wonderful time at SMU. Your family is in Patrice and my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Leigh and family, Please accept my heartfelt sympathy in the passing of your beloved brother. I am thankful that he got to see his new grandchild. God Bless you at this very sad time and give you comfort and peace, knowing that Jack is with the Lord.
Much love to you,

Leigh, we are so very sorry to hear about your brother's death. We will keep you and your family in our prayers. Love,

EMILY, CAROLINE AND JULIE,
AS AN OLD HIGH SCHOOL FRIEND OF JACK'S, I ALWAYS ADMIRED HIM AND KNEW ONE DAY, HE WOULD MAKE HIS FUTURE FAMILY PROUD. THERE ARE FEW PEOPLE WHO STAND OUT IN MY MIND FROM HIGH SCHOOL, BUT JACK IS ONE OF THOSE FEW SPECIAL PEOPLE. AS I READ ABOUT HIM, HE NEVER CHANGED FROM THE SMART, KIND HEARTED KID INTO BECOMING A WONDERFUL HUSBAND, DAD. GRANDPA AND BUSINESSMAN. MAY HIS SPIRIT LIVE ON IN ALL WHO LOVE HIM.
