    Dear, dear Uncle Jack,
    You and Sandy were such a great team: Sandy was quite unique, unforgettable and very, very special, and you embraced her and protected her with a heart that was so solid. While we know that Sandy will be so happy that you are with her again, we still feel the great loss.
    While your heart was always open wide, it was opening your eyes and mind to different people in different parts of the globe that so often gave you joy; from your friends in Austria, your memories of Argentina, your concern for the indigenous peoples of North America, and so much more.
    Jack, I will miss you, Mum & Dad will miss you and the whole family will miss you; you were such a good soul. Please remember to keep praying for us, I know that your simple prayers were the best prayers.
    With love,
    Fr. David
