To my father-in-law, Things that I remember the most about you were, the fact that you seemed to know everyone, no-one was a stranger, and if they were it wasn't for long. How much you loved playing cards with us. Holiday meals, peanut butter icecream pie, going to Crystal Beach on the boat. The way you'd poke us with your stubby finger for fun. Listening to all your stories of things you did. You had a good heart and were a good provider to your family, and generous to those in need. We sure will miss you! Love Cindi

Dear Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Mr. Penman was a great guy with a terrific sense of humor. I first met Jack at the Elks Club where my mother cooked and served lunches. I bought my second car from him, but most of all I remember him from being at my Aunt Irene and Uncle Kenny's house. May you find comfort knowing he has gone to eternal rest in peace and freed from the infirmaries of an Earthly existance. May God watch over each of you and grant you his peace. Jill

I've known Jack since the late 60s. I was working as a bartender at the Canterbury and Jack was working down the street for Nick. He was someone you had to know, he was a great listner and taught me a few things about the job. Over the years I bought several cars from him and he always remembered his friends. I haven't seen Jack in a number of years, but I will miss him all the same. The family and community has lost a great gentleman.
