Dear Betty and family, i am so sorry for your loss of Jack on this earth. I am so grateful that his life continues on in the Presence of the Savior...and that you have the assurance of seeing him again. When we would visit he would always say that he didn't understand how people could live without knowing God and trusting in Him. May the God of all comfort give peace to your hearts as only He can. With sincere sympathy and love, Sonja
