    Sharon, Michael, and Richard, It's very hard to bear the loss of someone who is very dear to you, and as you have lost your husband, father, and best friend. Uncle Jack's wonderful memories will forever live on in our hearts. I will certainly miss his happy & funny demeanor and the stories he enjoyed sharing. He cherished his family & friends, always gave a helping hand, lived life to its fullest, and loved with all his heart. Everyone should be lucky enough to have an Uncle Jack. He will be greatly missed. ~ Lisa~

    A great thing about Jack was his willingness to help just about everyone, his neighbors, relatives, and friends. He was always welcoming.
