Jack, we have been very close for the past 35 years. It is with such sadness that we didn't get to share more time. You are the most special person. You were a tower of strength for me many times in my life. I was looking forward to visiting you during your recovery. Will miss you always. It is a shame we never had a chance to be together ! Much love to you and Kathy and Ruth.

My dearest Jack, today is my birthday and you always called me, I was so looking forward to hearing from you and having our long talk. My heart is broken that I won't hear that voice and share our thoughts. For a while when I lived in New Ulm, we shared some great times. I'll never forget how much fun we had and how we wanted to build a future together. While that never happened, I will always have you in my heart and love you. You have left a beautiful legacy with Jan and her girls. When Jan and I talked this week, I knew you were listening and hoping that in some way I could provide some comfort and guidance for her future without you. You were the rock. I will miss your poems, and that big smile. We all live more richly, having known such a sweetheart of a man. I love you dearly.

My prayers are with the entire family. I was Janice's neighbor and grew up in the same street where he lived. We will always remember him for how thoughtful he was. Sometimes when he had extra food from work he would sometimes bring us some crab legs and cajun sausage to make some gumbo and we would gladly send him a big pot just for him. He was kind and always had a smile on his face whenever we drove past his house. I was in 6th grade when my parents bought that house and he was always so nice and would watch over our house when we were out. Now that I have 3 little girls of my own it's sad to see someone you basically grew up with gone.I will truly miss him. Janice, Nicky, Amanda please accept my heartfelt sympathy. with lot's of Love,
Anna Rabadan and Family

We complain about the cross we bear but don't realize
it is preparing us for the dip in the road that God can see and we can't.

Whatever your cross, whatever your pain,
there will always be sunshine, after the rain....

Perhaps you may stumble, perhaps even fall;
But God's always ready, to answer your call....

He knows every heartache, sees every tear,
a word from His lips, can calm every fear...

Your sorrows may linger, throughout the night,
But suddenly vanish, dawn's early light...

The Savior is waiting, somewhere above,
to give you His grace, and send you His love...

God promises a safe landing, not a calm passage.

May God Bless

Jan,
Your phone call was quiet a shock! I am glad you found me and let me know what happened. I am very very saddened about the news of Jack. Your Daddy loves you so much!
Remember we are promised to be all together again for eternity, so it is only while we remain on earth we are apart for now.
Love, Donna

Mr. Schultz was a patient in our unit during his hospital stay for several weeks before his passing. During those few weeks, I felt very privileged to be a part of his care, thank-you for trusting me. Patients like him and his family make it all worthwhile. Thanks again-I'm sorry for your loss!

The Schultz Family-
I am so sorry for your loss. Jack and I were friends and co-workers at E3 Electric and PSE. It was such a shock when I read the news of his passing. We had not been in contact since he retired. Jack had been heavily on my mind for the last few months and I put off calling him and now deeply regret it. Tough lesson to learn!
I pray God to give you all comfort and strength to see you through the days ahead.
Sincerely,
Peggy Clack

Jack:
You were a true friend. We graduated from Spring Branch together and attended South Texas Junior College together and stayed in touch and hung out together for many years afterwards. It was some great times. Sorry we got so busy that we didn't stay as in touch as much as we once had. Godbless and keep you.
