My Uncle John was always my favorite. A few visits with him and my Aunt at the Lake of the Ozarks are some of my fondest memories.
I am glad to know he is out of pain & at peace. RIP Uncle John
I knew Jack not long after he graduated from Westport. There were several of us that kind of ran around
together. He was funny, and handsome, and had many friends. After he went to the service, we all did not see much more of each other, I think I miss those times as much as any others I experienced from that time. So many are gone or moved, I hope all are just as great as they were then.
Much Love and comforting wishes to you Mary Jane, and I’m sure the same from the friendly spirits of my family, they loved you. Bless you.
