Very sorry for your loss. I enjoyed vesting with Jack when we would visit his neighbors Marilyn & Ralph West. He was a great help to them after their house fire. I also knew Jack from Glacier Hills. Thank you for your service to our country. Rest in peace my friend.

One of the 2 Father figures in my life.
Stern at times, gave help when needed.
Never short on words of wisdom, or
pointing out a mistake to learn from.
A truly good man, I was fortunate to
call family. You will be missed, sir.

Jack was a great guy to work with and also a good team player at Allied. His contributions were many and he was a good example for the younger employees. We missed him when he left Allied. Our thoughts and prayers go to Evelyn and the family.

I will forever be your "red haired" flower girl. How did we ever start calling it green? I enjoyed every visit and conversation I had with Jack ever since. A truly nice man. Now you can talk tractors with my Dad in heaven.
