See Condolences

Jack was a fellow dog walker and friend. Pulling away in his motor home each year marked the cooler days of fall and the impending winter gloom. He was a man in search of eternal summer and long adventurous road-trips. Florida was his snowbird destination. Fly high my friend and enjoy the halcyon days of your youth. God bless you. Condolences to the family as you move through this difficult time.

For 18 years I watched John walk his dog several times a day. He was a great neighbor and he will be missed. My condolences to the family.

Will always remember seeing John at the Bus Nuts rallies walking his dogs.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
