Dear Pat,

My thoughts, and that of my family are with you at this time. Your family will remain in our prayers. All I can say is that he was a lucky guy to have such a special sister.

Fondly,

Joan

(and all the Cannons)

My memories of Uncle Jack all include laughter, and what a legacy that is! I will always be able to think of him, with love, affection, and a smile...and I hope when my time comes, the same can be said of me.
