John, thank you for your service for our nation, thank you for being our friend and a member of our inner circle with the OFBC. You will be missed, bless you and your fantastic achievements on Earth.

I remember Jack so well when he was a counselor at the mental health center. An authentic, compassionate helper. Dr. Bill Goodson

I and Mary Ellen and my sister, Ruth and Jack were about the same age and we enjoyed many happy summers together at grandma and grandpa´s house. Especially memorable was Jack´s travel with the Paul Dysinger family visiting many national parks in the western USA in about 1944. Jack was always a special cousin to Ruth and me.

Bo, Dianne, and families are prayers are with you. Jack was a special man. Love, Jon & Glenna Dysinger
