Dear Hunter and family, I just read about Jack and shared it with my mom, Evelyn Biltz. I am Kathy Crossett, daughter of Evelyn and Dale Biltz from Ravenna, Ohio. Jack was our dear friend when we lived in Charlestown, Ohio. He helped search for my brother Terry at West Branch Reservoir. I used to babysit your children when I was in high school. I spoke to Jack before he passed on the phone. On and I are so sorry for your loss.
