Jack attended the same church I attended in a small town in Maryland when he was in his teens. He was a very nice young man. He was also my second cousin. He was a friendly person and a good person and it seems he was all of his life. We exchanged Christmas letters every year and he was very involved with his children and grandchildren and seemed to be a wonderful granddad. I know he will be missed by all who knew him. God bless his wonderful family and comfort them in their sorrow.

I only met Jack once but I thoroughly enjoyed him (and the wonderful family who joined us). He told me stories of his air force days and how he met Marilyn ( the love of his life). He was kind and so nice to be with. I know his family will miss him dearly. My wish is for them all to gain strength from the wonderful memories they share. The time was just too short. Rest in peace Jack. My prayers are with your family.
