Hi dad,
It's been 11 years since you've been gone and there is not one day that goes by where I don't think about you. I miss you sooooo much. Your granddaughter Taylor is almost 16 years old now and she thinks she knows everything. I wish you were here. I love you so much daddy. I hope everything is good and well with you. If Josh is up there with you can you tell him I love him and miss him too and I'm sorry for not being the nicest sister I should of been to him? Til we meet again. I love you!

To Mr and Mrs. Folger:
Thank you so much for being there for Jack in his years of need. He spoke so highly of you I wish I had a chance to meet you as my Brother was so special to me and I know you were also his "family". I wish you and your sons could join us in his "Celebration of Life" as he loved you all so much. I will try to find you. Until then. Love Lena (One of Jack's siters).

As you know my Brother, Jack has passed away and I still cannot stop crying. I already miss him so much and the holidays are not even on us yet which is when we had the most time to spend together (i.e work, etc. agggggggghhhhhhhhhhhh). If you have a loved one, please spend as much time loving them as you can now because life is tooooooooo short. I just want to hold and hug my brother and laugh with him SO much I cannot stand it. Thank God I have my husband who helps me through all of this. Anyway, if you knew my brother or just me, please sign on to: Signonsandiego.com, look forJack Hansel II in the obits. His was March 4th and leave your sentiments as I would like to print it out and have it on a special table for my Brother at his "Celebration of Life". Love to all of you. Thank you so much.

Our condolences to Jacks family:
John and I knew Jack as a teenager and cared for him as if he was our own. He stayed with us for a while and we loved having him in our home. He was a joy to us and he and our sons were like brothers. Even as an adult he introduced us to his lovely wife Denis' and we stayed in touch with cards at Christmas. He was a special person and we feel fortunate to have known him.
Sincerely,
John & Beverly Folger
