January 14, 2013

On this Exact date 01-14: 6 Years Ago My Father passed. On this exact date 01-14: 36 Years Ago My Mother passed. Your Family thinks of you Both everyday.
Quite an Incredible Coincidence for a Memorial date especially when you consider that, This exact date 01-14, is My Eldest sisters Birthday date as well.

Big day for All of Us.
Truth is stranger than fiction.

Celebration of Life --all thoughts gathered and delivered by Jack on 1/23/07

Eulogy - Greek meaning = “good words”. It is typically associated with loss, sadness & grieving which is what occurs at most funerals. That is neither our message today nor the feeling we his family, wish to impart today.

We want our “good words “ today to acknowledge & celebrate a life well lived, successful & fruitful in every sense of the word. He would be the first to say, “Sing no sad songs for me.” He lived 92 full years and died in his sleep. The shell is gone. His spirit is with us and his spirit is in us. Celebrate his life with us. We are sad, but we are not unhappy.

Today we are in the business of counting our many blessings in regard to our father.

He had a great life. He grew up in Bridgeport; He raised a family and built a successful career on the South Side, Of Chicago.
He taught by his example. He led an honorable life, true to his strong faith and high character.
He was a gentleman in every sense of the word, never failing to open a door or offer a hand, He treated people with respect. He could sit down and talk to anyone. He had a rare gift of making people feel at ease.

He was, in every sense of the word a gentleman and a gentle man. Articulate. Wise. Generous. Kind
He was a man of integrity, a man who loved his family, a man who was genuinely happy with life and you just knew it, you could feel it surround him.

He was the consummate Salesman. His people skills were enviable. He considered that whatever you do in life, you are always selling…be it a product, an idea or yourself.

He wrote this in a letter to Jack twenty years ago:
“Selling is an honorable profession. “

There is no substitute for product knowledge, market analysis, truthfulness, honesty and sincerity, and any field of endeavor.

In your chosen profession, character, integrity and reputation are priceless assets. Products might be defective, companies can falter or fail, but a personal reputation combined with a record of achievement is a great parachute and springboard.”

To Frank Meyers, there was no alternative but to live life above reproach, because it simply was the right thing to do.

As any good father he taught us many things……

He taught us that a favorable first impression was everything and perception is reality.
He came from an era when a pressed shirt, shined shoes, and a fresh haircut distinguished you. Dress like you want to own company.

He would make Pat and Mary Eli walk through the living room with a book on our head to improve our posture and practice speaking. “Pronounce each word, as though it was the only word you were going to speak” (drove us CRAZY!!)
It was the Frank Meyers Finishing schools for girl’s right there in our own living room.

And to make sure we understood the keen art of grooming, he would line his shoes up in the kitchen and instruct us how to apply the polish and buff properly!
Pat was paid .25 a shirt after he demonstrated the proper ironing method to follow. (Even then Pat said it wasn’t worth it!)

He was a Quiet and Patient man. He was a man of faith. His rosary was always close by. He taught more by example, the subtle day to day dealings, the kind of things you don’t even notice……… but eventually realize that these are the things that have affected our entire vision of life.

How Do you judge a man’s life but by the relationships he has acquired?
Last week in Florida where we also held a memorial for him, yes, this is an encore performance, Dad always told us practice makes perfect…. We played to a full house of his friends and acquaintances of 25 years. People used words like, lovely, gentle, kind, humorous, uplifting, love of life, considerate, attentive to describe him.

This is the spirit of Life we wish to celebrate and memorialize today. Even when he lost his mental acuity, his warmth and good spirits, his personality and his good humor always came shining through. This is the spirit & memory which we choose to celebrate today. We his family know that, His love of life everyday, His spirit lives on in all of us who knew him and he is remembered by our thoughts & actions with every good deed which emulates his mantra of the birds are singing & the sun is shining in our own lives. This is what he wanted for himself & his children.

Reflections on Dad by Kathy & Bill. (daughter and son-in-law)

It Started in Bridgeport, the Chicago version of tough, rough and tumble "Streets of New York, around 1914. A neighborhood segmented ethnic groups. Dad's family was Polish and German, living within the German's. In order fit in, Dad’s father changed the family name to Meyers.

These early years were a defining moment in forming Dad’s strength of character.

He was able to maintain his kind and gentle spirit when in second grade he met the love of his life Eileen. The beginning of what would be a lifelong evolution of Love of Family.

Choices early on. He made his Father proud when he ranked in the top Ten of for the Chicago Police Force test. However, when he told Eileen, she made the choice for him. It was too dangerous.

While he would have been a great Policeman, he was an outstanding Business Man

Toughness and thoughtfulness combined to form his reputation as a Man of Integrity both personally and as he rose through the rank of Zenith Radio Dist. Corp.

He continued to make choices. On behalf of his family. "I never had the Killer Instinct".... and where he certainly had the intelligence, business savvy etc., he never made it to the top, because of the price to be paid. In those days the risk/rewards to relationships was not worth it to him.

He came full circle. In retirement he utilized his years of experience, and shared his wisdom as his family grew from the basic four, to son-in-laws, grandchildren and great-grand children.

In the last 3 weeks before he died he connected with all of them. A gift we will cherish forever. And as we look back on these last days, he was clearly connecting with those in heaven waiting for him. His brother, mother, and most of all the love of his life... Eileen. We are so happy Dad that the Birds are Singing and the Sun is shining forever.

Until we meet again...we hold dear all you gave us.

Reflections on Dad by Phillip (oldest grandson)

How do you know spring is here?

Sure, you can point to the melting snow, or the buds on the tips of trees, and it might help you realize it.

But how do you really know that spring is here?

You know because when you open a door or window, and that smell – I can’t describe it, but you just know it: the air is fresh. Your eyes brighten when you recognize it. You smile. Because you feel it, you know. It’s here! This is it, and it’s the real thing.

That is how it was with my grandfather. He was a gentleman, a man of integrity, a man who loved his family with his life, a man who was genuinely happy with life.

Articulate. Wise. Generous. Kind.

Sure, you saw the way he treated people with dignity and honor in everything he did and said. You could see his gentleness as he spoke to others; you could hear it in his voice.

But you knew it because you felt it. You could sense it, just being around him. Which is why his customers, friends, and family all knew his caring was real.

He loved to sing – not because he knew all the words, but because it was in his heart. The music was just the expression of the joy that came from within him. And when it came out, it brightened the entire room, because it came with dancing, and his impeccable attire, and as he floated across the room, with Grayce, and style, you could not help but know that life was good.

You just knew.

Wise. Humble. Insightful. Discerning.

Every character trait I can remember in him comes with the memory of his gentle instruction, but also with the unhesitating example of his unswerving life. To Frank Meyers, there was no alternative but to live life above reproach, because it simply was the right thing to do.

My son, pay attention to what I say. Listen closely to my words. For they are life to those who find them, and health to a man’s whole body. Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.

Without a doubt, Frank Meyers lived this out. The blessing of his long and healthy life did not go unnoticed by even him, and

How do you know its spring? Because, the birds are singing, and the sun is shining.

Because of Frank, Grandpa, Dad… we can feel it. We just know.

Reflection of Dad by Jack, Mary Ei,Pat & Kathy. (children)

As we were planning what to say to you today, to try to tell you about my dad, it became abundantly clear that attempting to capture Frank Meyers was going to be impossible by just choosing a few events of his 92 years and help you know him the way we did ……But this is not about what Frank did but who he was.

Dad was, in every sense of the word a gentleman and a gentle man.
He was a man of integrity, a man who loved his family, a man who was genuinely happy with life.

As any good father he taught us many things……

He taught us that a favorable first impression was everything and perception is reality.
He came from an era when a pressed shirt, shined shoes, and a fresh haircut distinguished you. “Dress like you want to own company.”

He would make Pat and Mary Ei walk through the living room with a book on our head to improve our posture and practice speaking. “Pronounce each word, as though it were the only word you were going to speak” (drove us CRAZY!!)
It was the Frank Meyers Finishing schools for girls right there in our own living room.

And to make sure we understood the keen art of grooming, he would line his shoes up in the kitchen and instruct us how to apply the polish and buff properly!
Pat was paid .25 a shirt after he demonstrated the proper ironing method to follow. (Even then Pat said it wasn’t worth it!)
I think he read Tom Sawyer a few too many times.

Values Respect
Most importantly, He had old-fashioned values, with kindness and respect for people, all people no matter what their station in life. Dad had a keen insight and perception of people.

Kathy related an occasion where she was getting annoyed at a dinner waitress for less than prompt service when dad said to her, “you need to be kind, she may have a sick child at home or other personal problem that is her focus today.”

Last week in Florida, I was thanking one of the dining room staff for her kindness to dad.
She had worked at the country club that dad joined when first going down to Florida. She ultimately changed jobs to work at the facility where he currently lived.
Her familiar face was a comfort to dad during the bad times when the strokes caused such confusion for him----- She looked at me and said, “yes I know”, your dad just told me the same thing 2 months ago. She said I’m so glad he told me, I never realized how important that is.
He took the time to tell her.

Selling

He was the consummate Salesman. His people skills were enviable, I once told him I could never do what he did, that is, be a salesman, he didn’t even answer me but just looked at me with a sigh. As though to say, you just don’t get it yet do you?
He considered that whatever you do in life, you are always selling…be it a product, an idea or yourself.

He wrote this in a letter to Jack twenty years ago:
“Selling is an honorable profession. I do not equate a salesman with the huckster who sells rosaries and crosses out of the trunk of his car and has to leave town before the gold turns green. “ (I find it interesting that he used religious articles)

“There is no substitute for product knowledge, market analysis, truthfulness, honesty and sincerity, and any field of endeavor where these qualities are a handicap is best left to the transient fast-talking suede shoe artists who must seek a fresh cow to milk every six months and can’t look anyone in the eye.

In your chosen profession, character, integrity and reputation are priceless assets. Products might be defective, companies can falter or fail, but a personal reputation combined with a record of achievement is a great parachute and springboard.”

He was a Quiet and Patient man. He was a man of faith. His rosary was always close by. He taught more by example, the subtle day-to-day dealings, and the kind of things you don’t even notice but eventually realize that these are the things that have affected our entire vision of life.

He was patient and rarely raised his voice in anger.
PATINECE
Just Raising 4 children,
Sharing ONE bathroom with 4 girls in the house…
PATIENCE was often a struggle.
One most memorable event occurred when Jack wedged Dad’s beloved car up against the house in Evergreen Park. Dad stood there directing Jack how to extricate the vehicle away from the building then watched PATIENTLY as each letter of the word OLDSMOBILE DROPPED TO THE GROUND!
Ah yes PATIENCE!

How Do you judge a man’s life but by the relationships he has acquired?
Last week in Florida where we also held a memorial for him, ……
Yes, this is an encore performance, Dad always told us practice makes perfect….
We played to a full house of his friends and acquaintances of 25 years. People used words like, lovely, gentle, kind, humorous, uplifting, love of life, considerate, attentive to describe him.

Family

He relished his visits to Chicago and family. Jack dragged him boating; we forced him to sporting events of the children, and had breakfast with the sons-in-law. With grandchildren he went downtown and drove to Wisconsin and asked about their careers. He played with the great-grandchildren. And while he couldn’t quite keep everyone names straight, he sure was delighted that one little guy out of ten had his blue eyes!
He would often look at the crowded room and say, ”I’ve got a good looking bunch don’t I?”

Over the last 2 years, when the effect of the strokes ravished his brain and
He lost his mental acuity; his warmth and good spirits, his personality and his good humor came shining through

Dear Jonathan,
What greater legacy can a man leave than that of a loving family. You and your sisters did everything possible to ensure that your father enjoyed a quality of life that few people ever know. You were There for him in all ways.
I think of your dad as that man with a “wink and a smile”: he was charming, gracious, and best of all, full of love for all of you. Thank you for sharing him with me.
Love,
Vicki

To the Meyer siblings: I always remember your Dad, as if he was still alive, to me he was like my own father, I always remember his wise and appropiate advise, I always carry with me the program from the wake, his pictures adorn my living room, I am always mentioning his lively ways to the lady I work for now, salutations to all of you in the Chicago area, San Diego and Indianapolis

Jack, my most savored memories of your Dad, are the ones where we would laugh out loud at things that took place in our younger years, there was never one single day that I left his apartment that I didn't have a belly ache from laughing so much, I really miss him

Since the beginning of this year we have experienced the gut-wrenching loss poets write about ; How Love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation. In heartfelt nostalgia, We celebrate the Spirit of Fathers Day. My Father's Joyful Spirit remains with us always, especially in treasured memories & pictures. Please review them and enjoy these happy photographic memories. We welcome you to add your own at any time.

Dear Jack: My fondest recollection of your Dad goes back to our college days when we were looking for a used car for you. After having located a suitable one, the seller was adamant about not "taking a check" to the point of hostility. I will never forget the poise with which your Father calmly told you & I to "wait outside" as he walked into the seller's house and 10 minutes later we drove that car away. I never forgot that Saturday Afternoon. I hope this story causes you to smile as it always does me. I remember your Dad fondly as an elegant gentleman & consummate salesman. Loving Condolences to you and your sisters. You are all in our prayers.

March 13, 2007

Jack: Our Dads were part of the "Greatest Generation", unsung heroes who fufilled responsibilities without thought of recognition or accolades. Heroic deeds, even the mundane, can never be repayed, only passed on. You have perpetuated that legacy. Well Done.

My heartfelt sympathy goes to you and your sisters. Although I never had the privilege of meeting your father, I feel like I knew him, from the many stories you shared with me. The love, devotion and support you and your sisters gave your father, especially in his last years, are a testament to his legacy. I can think of no greater love. Always be proud of that, I know that I am so proud and grateful that you are such a dear friend. Love, JoAnne

I will treasure the times over the many years I had talking with him, his charismatic smile was always enlightening. You must know - he always looked at you with pride and he will watch over you as you did for him over the past years. I am here for you as you were for me when my father past away 16 years ago. My heart and prayers are with you and your family. Lovingly Lesa Donaldson

Jack, my old Friend,

Please accept my sincerest condolence at the passing of your father. Though I only saw you together a couple of times, it was clear to me that you had a deep affection and noble love for him. I feel privileged to have known him, if only for a few hours, and I enjoyed his company immensely. I will remember him, sitting by the tiller, framed by the blue of Michigan with a look of happiness and contentment on his face, beaming pride and love for his pirate son. In a private moment, he confided his utter delight in all his children with a conviction plain to see and unmistakable to another father. I have already expressed my admiration of your efforts to ensure that he retained his independence and self respect - all too rare these days - and I'm certain that it added substantially to his pride in his children, I could feel it. It is gratifying to hear that his last hours in this place were spent relaxing among those he loved, and that his passing was as gentle as he deserved, without any doubt. Please also extend my sympathy to your family, and ask them to remember that as the pain of loss fades, the sweetness of memory grows, and grants to a good man the only legacy that really matters.

Steve

My heart felt condolences on the loss of a great man. Unfortunately we are all reaching an age where we are completing a cycle. We are called upon to care for them as they did for us and eventually bid our parents farewell. Wishing you well through the healing process.Let me know when you return so we can get together- JIM

Jonathan and Family -
Your father held a very special place in all of your hearts. He was quite accomplished and lived a good, long life. I know you spent a lot of time in his later years taking care of him - time well spent. The indellible mark he has made on your hearts will remain forever. No one can really know the pain of your loss, we can only share our kindness and love.

Sandy Carlson

February 6, 2007

John...
Though I didn't have the opportunity to know your Dad, I can relate to how great your loss is. Having lost one of my own parents, I know that this void in your life is something you will always carry in your heart and that it takes a very long time for the sadness to disappear.

The love that you and your sisters have for your Father is quite obvious. It was beautifully reflected in the amount of time and attention which you all unselfishly gave to him and also in the touching tributes that acknowledged his life.
I will keep you and your family in my thoughts...

Love,
Sandy Carlson

Dear John, The biography of your Dad you sent was so lovely---a truly heartfelt tribute. You spoke of him so often, I felt like I knew him a little, even though we never had the chance to meet. Please take care of yourself and know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your sisters.

Dear Jack,

I was so sorry to hear about your loss. You were so close to your dad these last few years and really made spending time with him a priority and that must have meant so much to him. At a certain point in our parents' lives the greatest gift we can give is that of our time--and you certainly did that. I know it has been a long and difficult few years watching your dad at less than his best. All of your dad's wonderful qualities--great role model, devoted husband and father, and honorable in meeting his obligations to his family and country--live on in his children.I am sure he was so proud of his family.

Please know that your friends are there for you--to listen and talk--as you heal. Give my condolences to your family.

Dear Jack - for you and your sisters this must be a very difficult time - I really do understand how hard it is and how long it takes to deal with your dad's passing. It's strange that the longer his life became, the more you probably thought he would be there forever, and very poignant for all of you when you find yourself in the middle of a completely unexpected moment realizing he is no longer here - my thoughts are with you - love, Handy

pat; after losing my own parents it seemed comforting to me when you would relate to your dads status and share with all of us at the club your experiences with him. it always relieved me when you'd say he was doing well or ok or something that sounded positive. no doubt he was as wonderful as i pictured. i will miss hearing about him on your travels, but i will treasure the thoughts i remember. my prayers are with you. betsy andersen

What a wonderful man has left us all. He will be missed. He was the last
of the great old dads. It was a delight having your father as company, he
made a soon to be 60 year old, feel just like a 21 year old kid.
