I'd like to see just how fast you can run now....how high the trees are you always wanted to climb...It must have been nice to see mom and dad again....Ned, Johnny, Gerard, and Janice were probably waiting at the entrance of the Rexicana for you...I hope God took that awful hat from your head, and cast it out.....(only some know "the Hat") I'll miss the man chats we shared, the laughs, arguements.... all of it...I remember your face when I graduated Parris Island... I stood before you as a Man for the first time, you were soo proud to have a son as a Marine.....during deployments, the look carried me through the tough times...Thank you for making me the man I am today, I look forward to becoming my childrens Superman..... Now fly dad....fly.. you of all people have earned it.....Brian

I am so sorry about Jack. My life in Rexhame and at the Rexicana would not have been the same without Jack. One of the best guys in the world and the best laugh in the world. I'll never forget all the crazy times with Jack, Paul, Ned, John, Janice & Carolee. May you rest in peace. Love, Maureen Scott Callaghan
