So sorry to hear this news, Chad. We have so many fond memories of your Dad over many years! Will always remember his smile and kind heart.
I’m so sorry for your loss Chad I have known you’re dad a long time times he used to live behind us I would see him walking and mowing in the back yard I’m going to miss seeing him in town and around I’m so sorry he was an amazing man .
Chad and Peggy I’m so sorry you both know I loved Jack. He will be missed by so many of us.
I am sorry to hear of Jack’s death. He was my younger cousin and I last visited with him about fifteen years ago when we shared lunch with Joyce in Kokomo. I really didn’t know Jack as an adult but remember him fondly as a young boy. Our respective parents were not only related but also very close friends. Wonderful family and good memories.
So saddened to learn of Jack’s passing. He was definitely one of the good guys at WHS and continued to be a fine fellow in the years beyond high school. Consolations and prayers to Jack’s friends and family.
