He and Mrs Susie would allow us to use their pool with our 2 young boys. Mr Jack would come out and we had the most fun pool side chats. We looked forward to seeing him whenever we went. He would make sure the table umbrella was up for us and would bring my hungry boys snacks. He even helped us keep an eye on the boys as we would swipe parenting stories.
He was truly the best sort of human. The type of guy who would give you the shirt off his back.
We love you Mr Jack and will miss you.
I worked with Jack at UPS for 25 years. We have been at the retirement brecksfasts and he was great to talk with. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time.
I am so sorry to hear this. I worked with Jack 30 years at UPS and I can honestly say I never met a nicer guy. Rest in peace.

Susie, so sad to hear this. Always had so much fun with you and Jack in Florida! We will be praying for you and your family! Much love and hugs.
I remember Jack and Susie coming thru the car line to pick up their grandsons from SHV. I always called him papaw when I opened the door to let the boys in. I’m so sorry for your loss. He was a wonderful man. Sending prayers and love.
Susie and family,
I’m sorry to hear the news about Jack. Even though I haven’t seen him in a number of years just seeing his picture brought back many high school memories. He was a good athlete, on the baseball field, and all around great guy.
May God give you His full measure of Grace during this time.
