Not sure what to say?

Your presence still lingers everywhere Jack. Your laughter and chatter could fill up a room, a court, or a field. There are so many times that a moment just doesn't feel complete without you in it. Its been six months and by no means does your loss get any easier. You are still missed by so many people.
The soccer season just isn't the same without you on the sideline at each and every game. There are so many times when I could have sworn I heard you cheer or scream from the sidelines,...

I was really shocked when I heard the news. You were a great friend and colleague. You will truly be missed.

To Jack's Family my Deepest Sympathy. I had the honor of working with Jack at Sys-Tech years ago. Then thru the years since he has remained a friend to all of us (Marty, Barbara, Braxton, Gabe & Skyler). It was a pleasure knowing you Jack and you will be missed. You always had something to say to me to get me going. Thank you for always sharing a laugh and laughing with us.

Dear Maria & Children,

We're so very sorry for your devasting loss. We were on vacation when we heard about Jack. God has given Jack the enormous job of entertaining in heaven and we're sure it's already taking place. We want Maria and the children to know they are in our thoughts and prayers. Jack will be dearly missed by all. God Bless.

Where do we begin to try to tell you how sorry we are for the whole Weitkamp family. There is so much to say about what a great guy Jack was. The memories are so numerous for our whole family. My John remembers "the funny guy" who tickled and chased him constantly and who he was not allowed to get back at because Jack was the adult. John would recently get back at him by calling him "Grandpa Jack" and then quickly running away. Jake's memories are plentiful but the one that he keeps...

Maria, Brian, Nicole, Max, Alex:
We want to express our deepest sympathy to your entire family. Jack was a great person that was a friend to many. His sense of humor and joking manner will always be remembered. He was and is certainly one of God's treasures.

Mary,

Words can not express the pain I am feeling for you right now. I know how much Jack meant to you and although I can never replace the humor, I will always be there to fill the empty moments I know you will be having.

Treasure the surprise party that you threw for him, because that was the only time you could get something over on him & that was monumental. I still laugh when I picture his face when he walked into the room!

He protected you like a...

Dear Jack-
To my very first boyfriend way back in elementary school. Our lives went separate directions but I knew you would someday be a great Dad and friend to everyone you touched. There is no doubt that God has a special place for you in Heaven.
Having recently lost my mom, I know how heartwrenching it is to lose those that you are so close to - they take a piece of your heart. My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Weitkamp family from the Specht family. God bless you.

Maria, Brian, Nicole, Max, Alex and Mary,
We at Holy Cross School had dubbed Jack the "Bad" Weitkamp, only from reading this guest book do you know that was far from the real picture of Jack. It was that ornery demeanor, that smile, and the look in his eyes that we enjoyed seeing walk in the front door. Jack could not leave a room without everyone in it laughing as he walked out. Someone like that is rare, kids always remember your dad as a rare jewel to be cherished forever. Our...
