Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends. God Bless. Carol Lambert Family. Mike Toombs mtsunrise@ida.net I'm one of the many guys who had the opportunity to "pick" some music with Jack. We played and jammed together on multiple occasions. Jack always brought his best smile and best tunes. Myself and the others from the "40 SOMETHIN BAND" are going to miss Jack. We offer our heart felt blessings upon Jack's family and ask Heavenly Father to give comfort at this time. Judy Shurtliff-Hebdon io719_jms@yahoo.com I can't believe this. I never knew that Jack had been sick. Jack was an awesome young man. I was able to get to know Jack better when he played music with my brother's band at the Forty. Whenever I would run into him anywhere, he was always so kind always asking about us. My husband, Harvy has known Jack & his family for years. We are very sorry to hear of this. Our prayers will be with all of you. Take care, Harvy & Judy Sally and Jeff Perry sallywk@ida.net We really enjoyed getting to know Jack through his music. His gentle ways and quiet humor will be greatly missed. May warm memories of Jack bring comfort to you, his family. Sally and Jeff Perry Tracey Jo Richards I went to school with Jack & was a neighborhood friend of Jack & Danny. I heart goes out to his family. Especially to his wife and children.
