I was so sad to hear of Jack's passing, but I am sure he is a happy guy taking daily walks in Heaven. I miss seeing him when I visit my Mom at The Arbor's. He was always out walking or sitting out enjoying the outdoors and he never passed up a kiss on the cheek when I greeted him. I loved talking and joking with him! He was one special person. My sincerest condolences to his entire family.
