So sorry to learn of Jacks passing. He and Charlene were friends for many years. Jack and Cecil worked together in the Propane business many years. Jack visited us several times during recent summer visits to Montana while staying with daughter Jackie.

I worked at the library in Quartzsite. Jack was an avid reader. So I have known both him and Charlene for a long time. He will be missed.
