I knew Jack back in the day when I worked at Prairie Island. Seems like a million years ago now. May God give him rest and comfort. He was one of the good ones.

What I will miss most about Jack is his smile and his love of dancing! So happy I had the opportunity to spend time with this amazing man in his final years
