Alex and I will miss you. Although we know you are no longer suffering, it still doesn't make it any easier. I am so glad that mum, dad and alex got to spend time together one last time. That will be a great memory for us all. Although you are gone, you will always be alive in mine and alex's heart! You will be missed and we will love you forever!

Dear Jack, we've only known you for a few years, but you were a gentleman and a scholar and a delight to be with. We'll all miss you. George & Peggy
I am attaching a picture of my Uncle Jack and my mom, Joan when they were quite young. I have so many wonderful memories of my uncle.
