Janet I'm so sorry to hear about Jack. Although Brandi lives in California she has continued to keep up with the news in the Log Cabin. She just sent me the message of Jack's passing. As hard as I'm sure this is and will continue to be for some time , you have the assurance that he is with the Lord and you will see him again in God's time. My prayers will be with you and your family as you go through the grieving process.

To Janet, Jack's children and grandchildren, and family: Praying that you feel Gods comforting arms around you as He carries you through the days ahead with His never ending faithfulness and profound love.
