Wow, where do I begin. I worked with Jack at Briggs & Stratton from 1989 until he retired. He was such a genuinely kind and dear person. Always a cheery greeting and completely positive attitude. His kind words and support helped me through a very difficult divorce and he was always ready to help me with any work difficulties I had. After he retired I so looked forward to his visits to us here at Briggs during our annual "food frenzy" the last day before Christmas shutdown. He'd stop in other times during the year just to see how we were all doing. He was not only a gentleman, he was a gentle man.
I have a plaque hanging in my cubicle at work that was given to me after the death of my sister. I miss her every day and I read it every day. It brings me comfort and I hope it will bring the same to all who knew and loved Jack. It is as follows:
ASCENSION
And if I go, while you're still here..
Know that I live on,
vibrating to a different measure
behind a thin veil you cannot see through.
You will not see me,
so you must have faith.
I wait the time when we can soar together again,
Both aware of each other.
Until then, live your life to its fullest.
And when you need me,
just whisper my name in your heart,
...I will be there.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. God has called home a wonderful angel.
God bless you all,
Nancy McNeil
