Remembrances

Jack, you were always there for me. You helped me find someone to fix the water pump to the house, you gave me instructions on how to replace a rotted sub floor and sill plate. You knew someone when I wanted to put in AC and you offered encouragement when I was having employee problems and was just plain frustrated. And, you were so very generous sharing your deer, antelope & buffalo meat with us.
You always offered good advice and then followed it up with a story that would make me laugh and feel better. Dinners together, dominos, and hunting asparagus, lessons on so many things, your stories and your quick laughter, I will miss them all. But, you are in my heart where I have held you since we first met and my memories of you will bring me happiness when I miss you.
Jack, thank you for taking me into your life and making me feel special. I will miss you and always love you.
