Big Guy I wish I could see the look on both of your faces when you are back together. I believe it will be just like the first time you saw her walking down the aisle at your wedding and her look would be when she was saying her vows to you. I know you are happy and smiling that special smile you haven´t smiled in a few years. Big Guy I miss you both and now you can be one again for ever and ever. Hope to see you both down the road because we don´t say good-bye we say see you later

Oh Jack, you will be so missed. I bet your reunion with Melissa in Heaven was grand. I know how you loved & missed her. Good bye my friend, RIP Jack.
