Dear Rose and Jenny, I am so overwhelmingly filled with sadness for you both. Jack was such an extraordinary man. He had so many wonderful qualities. John loved him very much too. John told me many stories about the three of them growing up. Jack was John's go to person when he had questions about life, since he was the oldest child. There isn't anything that I can say to ease the pain of his loss. I am happy Rose you have Jenny in your life too. God Bless you both and Tilly too during this most difficult time.

Pokoj vjecni svima vama, vi sto niste vise snama
