Jack we will miss you


Well they buried Jack today. It's hard to put the sorrow I feel into words. He was such a kind individual. He always had kind things to say to everyone. Knowing how I feel about my friend, I just can't imagine the the awful hurt that his wife Barbara, his son Jackie , Yvonne and Shawna his two daughters are feeling today.

Jack was one of those that treated people kindly. I can see in my mind's eye, the beam on his face as he smiled that wonderful smile of his. He always had a cheerful disposition when I was around. I don't ever remember seeing a frown on his face.

He was a man that did much for his community. His life's achievements were, National Guard, during which that time he was named Soldier of the Year for North Carolina and Tennessee.
He also served four years in the US Navy.
He was a member of Concord Masonic Lodge since 1962, and served as Master of the Lodge in 1969. He was a member of the York Rite, and was a Shriner. He was a long time member of the Speed Ruritan Club.

Again I want to express to his family my very deepest sympathies.

God Bless, Love,hugs,kisses
