nothing anyone can say to ease the pain.

never met the man, but always feel bad for the loved ones relatives in times like this, you have to carry the burden. from everything you've ever said, he's important to you and thats a special bond. all prayers with you and him.

So sorry to hear about your father, Jack. He was a very nice man. I remember how you both were so very close at the MJ Parties. He was young at heart and a lot of fun to be with. We will miss him. Bless you and your family.

When my Father passed, someone sent me this poem, Hope it brings you some joy in this difficult time

What Makes a Dad

God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,
The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle's flight,
The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need,
Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was complete,
And so,

He called it ... Dad

As others have mentioned, fortunate to have gotten to know Jack Sr. a little at a few SB parties. Glad to have had the opportunity, a class act for sure.

My condolences.

Very apropos 1%er!



Jack-

We spoke years ago about the smoking thing, and how I felt almost losing my dad do to a triple bypass from the dreaded habit. I still cannot imagine the pain you must be in, but hopefully our words do provide some solace!

God rest his soul and yours, as well as the family!


RIP MJ Sr.
