I knew Jack through his son, Wayne, my friend since 7th grade. I got to know him a little better in my 30s and 40s. I really respected how he was always there for his grandchildren, especially when things were tough. He is still there in your heart, y'all. You still have your dad, too, Terra. Call him.

Relieved you have no more pain and suffering.. Back in your young and strong body. Sad to see the ones that are going to miss you so much. Terra and Matthew looked up to you not just as a grandfather but as a second father. It was with much delight and humor always keeping you three out of so much mischief. You were also at times, the father I never had. Im so grateful and privileged to have known you and been a part of your life. I will always remember my kids jumping for joy yelling, "Pa's here!!! Pa's here!!!!" every time you pulled up in the driveway for your daily visits when they were little. You made them feel like the luckiest kids in the world to have you as their "Pa" (grampa) I will pray that God will keep Bernie safe and strong without you. God Bless her for being there and taking wonderful care of such a wonderful man. R.I.P Jack
