Margaret and I are so sorry for your loss. It was our good fortune to have had Jack as a friend in our lives. His care for our pups was special. We will miss him and his signature laugh. Our thoughts are with you all.
Such a kind and wise man! He always took time for the little but important things in life and was such a great friend and role model to our family. Thinking of all of you and sending lots of love and prayers.

Deb and Dave,
We’re so sorry we can’t be there, but please accept our sincere condolences. I only met Jack a few times, but it was instantly clear that he was someone you would be proud to call your friend.
Our thoughts are with you both.
