My sincere condolences to the entire family! God has truly blessed our family with wonderful men that are good examples of what it means to be a faithful, and giving father and husband. I have only fond memories of our family times together in Lodgegrass, and of our visit on the lake 10 years ago. God bless you all, and prayers for all, at this time of Jack’s passing.
May God comfort and keep you in His care as adjustments are made with him near in your hearts, but not physically present with you.
Much love,
Kathy and family
