Goodbye Big Daddy I won't forget the grout

I'm truly sorry for your loss. It's been 41 years since I have seen any of the Jaques clan, and remember them being quite a family.

Too many years have passed since we were classmates at the old Dowling High School. I remember what an artist you were in those days, but I had no idea what an artist you had become with your involvement in underground engineering. Rest in peace, Mike. My prayers follow you to heaven.

Mike was my undad before i can remember. Always was apart of ensuring i was granted family visits yearly in yester years. He tickled me to death, held me while jumping of cliffs, camped, apple river memories..etc.. loved me when i pestered him as he was on business calls. Seen him love with full might and in a magical inspiring way second to none. He had amazing travel experiences and even traveled by bike. My deepest condolences to the Jaques family, especially betsie, and yester years...

I'm so sorry to hear about Mike's passing. I immediately though back to all the times we played together as kids on Merle Hay Rd. My thought and prayers are with you.

Deepest sympathy, Sara, to you and the boys. I don't really know you but always enjoyed our brief interaction when you signed the boys up for things. Take care.

My prayers are with your family. I lost a brother last year so I have empathy for you and sympathy for your loss. I remember Mike was so "cool" he wasn't afraid to let his little sister and her friends hang around.

I am so sorry Sara. Micheal was like a father to me. I loved him and his amazing stories of his adventures. He is good man. Things will never be the same. God Bless. Lisa Reed
