What I remember most about Jack is when he would come down to Henderson and visit was I would always sit in his lap and he would have to make all those animal noises he would make ,Jack would just smile and keep making them to please me to this day I love animals .I will miss Jack ,but he will always be in my HEART.
looking at the pictures of Jack are sad.I like
that smile he always had. when visiting the family the
fun of going into his room and looking at all his things was great.it was always full and lot's to play with. like a treasure chest.
when his family visited our Maw and Papa in the country it
was also fun ,playing across the road on what we called a big hill running down the road bare foot trying to step in all the shade to keep from getting our feet hot.so many more memories to tell
after growing up we didn't get to see him much.and I did miss him.
On behalf of my entire family, I want to thank you and your staff for your excellent and caring service.
