My Uncle Jack was a very special man and loved by all. He was a man of God, a dedicated husband, father, grandfather and much more. He was extremely intelligent and a very loving man. He and my aunt Joyce were like second parents to me and my sister as we were raised in Texarkana. He will be greatly missed. RIP Uncle Jack. I love you.

Marty, I am so sorry to hear of your father's passing. Your parents were always so good to me and always welcomed me in to their home. I will never forget the weekend that you and your dad took me to a Texas-OU football game and a Dallas Cowboy game. One of the best weekends of my life! I also enjoyed having your dad coach us in some of the sports teams as we grew up. Those were great times! I have peace knowing his faithfulness to the Lord and that he will get to spend an eternity with your mother in a wonderful place. May God bless you and comfort you during this difficult time.
