Tom and I were blessed to know Jack. Jack was so sharp and engaged with life and family. Tom was impressed with Jack’s skill with remote control helicopters and airplanes, and Tom found out the expensive way that it there is a LOT of skill involved with that hobby!
He was a bright light on earth, now he is a bright light in heaven. On to your next adventure Jack!
