Dearest Anne Marie,

James and I have loved Jack, you and your family since we met. I cherished the many moments spent together with you and Jack at early morning masses. Jack was such a pleasure to be around. He shared his love freely and we loved him back. We pray Our Lord has a special place for him. May he be carried into heaven with much rejoicing!

May God bless you, William, James, and Joseph,
Rosemary Deardurff

Dear Anne Marie and Sons,
Bill and I are very sorry for your loss. Jack was a very kind person and always talked to us whether at church or at the Jewel. Anne I know that this is very difficult for you and I pray you find peace. I would be playing at church for Jack if it wasn't for the Covid.

Fondly,
Sylvia and Bill Hildebrandt

I've known John (Jack) and Annie for about 30 years with our mutual daily Mass and rosary events at St. Joe's. One thing I can say about Jack: he was one of the most humble men I've ever had the good fortune to meet. We will miss you, Jack, but we know it's not that you're gone, just present in another form. Eternal rest grant unto Jack, O Lord, and may the perpetual light shine upon him and may he rest in peace. Well done, good and faithful servant!
