I regret Juggy 's passing he was a true gentleman as well as a compassionate one. I still remember being told by the barmaid about his helping when a 1013 club customer passed away. How often do you see that?

I only had the privilege of meeting Jug and Mary once with my friend, Bill Flamank. I just know he was a heck of a guy and so very much admired by Bill. My prayers are with Mary and the rest of the family.

Words will never be able to convey my everlasting admiration and respect for Juggy (or "Under-Tall" as Hank used to call him). Many were the times he literally saved my life with his help. He was probably Hank's (Deichler) biggest hero. I send prayers to Mary and family (I remember Patrick and Joe-Joe!!!!). I no longer live in Kansas so will send my loving prayers instead of being able to visit.

Thanks for sharing this video. I never really got to know any of my cousins as our families didn't really do many things together during my time.
I did know that Jug, was named after my Dad. From seeing this video it gave me a chance to view the life and times of you.
Thank You

Please take comfort in the words recorded in the bible by our heavenly Father at this time, "Matthew 5:4 reads... happy are those who mourn since they will be comforted."
