Not sure what to say?

I wanted to personally thank everyone that have passed along their kind words, stories, and support over the last week. Dad touched many, many lives and we were all thankful for the time we were able to spend with him.
God Bless

When I think of Jack (that is what I always called him) I think of his sense of humor, his bright smile his enthusiam about life and his character. Every now and then someone comes along like him and we can step back and say ...he was a good man with a big heart.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Your family lived just down the hill from my grandparents (Doris & Leonard Brooks 1020 Maple)as I was growing up. I also worked with John at Sears for many years, with the last 8 years of my employment with Sears car pooling to Battle Creek. Wishing your family love and support.

I'm sorry to hear about John. I enjoyed working with him in the Credit Dept.at Sears in Jackson in the early 70's. He was a very proud family man and I know he'll be missed by all that he has worked with. I offer my sincere sympathy to his family.

I worked with John years ago at Jackson Sears in the Credit Dept. He came in nights to do calls and i worked the counter. We had alot of laughs and good times. He was a very nice guy and so devoted to his wife Joanne and kids. I have to tell a story...I was very young having started on co op at Sears at 16(im 52 now)and one weds night John came in and i said John youve got a dark spot on your forehead and i pointed at it and said right there and he said laughing..i know goofy...its Ash...

Will see you soon. Love and prayers, Sister Pat

He was a great guy, we will miss him and pray for him.
