From an Angel on high a tender message of love was softly whispered into the ear of this humble scribe....
Weep not for me now that I have passed.
Remember the laughter,the affection, the joy not just the recent tears.
Cherish the memories, our hopes and dreams. Hold fast to the love that we shared. Be happy with the time we spent together and being anew. For I
am not really gone, I am closer than ever before. As the morning sun rises and throughout the busy day... I am with you. Until the setting sun disappears on the horizon and we watch the day turn into night... I am here. You may feel a faint breeze stir round your head, while you slumber as I gently kiss your forehead, " Goodnight." The stars that shine so brightly in my heavenly sky help me watch over you and keep you from harm. I am the wind in the trees and the song of a bird. I am moonbeams in a midnight sky and a glorious rainbow after the storm. I am morning dew and freshly-fallen snow. I am a butterfly flying overhead and a puppy happily at play. I am a smile on a stranger's face a gentle touch a warm embrace. Liston to the wind for my message of love. Watch the sun rise and set in the sky with me. Feel my essence encircle you with warm memories.

I will always remember 'Jack' as a man that "stood his ground" when he had to, a friend that lent his ear when you needed to talk, a leader that understood the needs of his followers and a person that had a sense of compassion. Its all that and more which I will miss of him. With deepest sympathy to family and friends.
