My sincere condolences to all of you. I didn’t get to visit in person often, but when I did it was always a good visit with all of you. Jack always had a smile on his face, was kind and a gentle man. You will have a lot of memories I am sure and that will keep him close. Specific memories that come to my mind are camping years ago at Kakabeka Falls; his peach pancakes (where he seemed to end up with all the peaches) at Turkey Point, and being able to attend Nancy and Jack’s 60th Wedding Anniversary. May all your good memories bring you peace.
Carol BreenNancy,
So sorry to hear about Jack. It was good to see him again at Byron United years after our move from September Cr. He always had a wave when we walked by your house on the way to the park. Looks like you have lots of family to surround you at this difficult time and lots of wonderful memories. Deepest sympathy, Carol Breen.
