Hi Denise and family. I am so sorry to hear about Jack, my prayers are with you all.
He was a special guy, kind, gentle, and most funny. He was one of my first friends at the 1113 Club. His memories will stay with me forever.
He made the best of every day. I am envious of how he lived his life. He always had a good time, as you know.
Memories last forever, take care.♥♥♥
Love, Cathy Coburn
