JJ was a great leader and we appreciated his time he donated to Cub Scout Pack 6. My grandson started Cub Scouts when JJ was the Cub Master. We have many wonderful memories of that time. I also have lots of pictures and videos of our events. Thank you so much JJ. We will never forget you. Condolences to your wife and son Jack, who was also in Pack 6.

Ginny I am sorry to hear about your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your son.

It seems like yesterday that I bumped into JJ and his smiling face on the Stan State campus. He had such a good heart and understanding way, that all who knew him loved him. For those who didn't (know JJ), just look at his picture and you'll understand. All my prayers go out to his beloved family.
