Sorry to hear a great man of God had left us. Jack was a strong influence both in what to do and what not to do. He will be missed as well as his family I look forward to seeing him again.

Even though it's been over 15 years since Jack's entrance into glory, I will always regret not calling him aside when I was at Hilltop and letting him know what an awesome instrument he was in God's sovereign hand. I know God used his pastoral tutelage and genuine spiritual zeal for ministry to tell me to go back to college and beyond. I'm so very thankful I listened to His calling just like Jack did, and the incredible spiritual revelations He has blessed me with since then. I will always thank our glorious Lord for using Jack to allow me to experience first hand the wonderful way in which He multiplies opportunities to serve Him through the generations of His family...........

I was once told that Pastor Jack was a Pastor's Pastor. That statement is what sent me to Hilltop. Pastor Jack's love for the Lord is what kept me there. My family and I will remember him and Dee Dee forever.

Pastor Jack will forever live in our hearts as a monumental leader with unconquerable faith and courage to step out and sacrificially accomplish all he and Dee Dee believed the Lord asked of them. May his family be comforted in this time by the faithfulness of his earthly sojourn.
