I never knew my weaver family but I do know how blessed I am to share the same blood line. Thank God for you and your service for all mankind and America. My deepest sympathy to the family

I met Jack many years ago when my wife and I cared for his Mother Hazel and her 2nd husband Clyde Bumgardner. When Clyde passed away Jack and were sitting together and he said something I´ve never forgotten. He said: "When you die, you leave behind everything you have and take with you everything you are." It literally changed my life.

May he rest in peace.
