To Jack's Family-My deepest and heartfelt sympathy to you all…....  Jack was one of the “good guys”. He was a good man. No-one could hit a home-run like Jack!! I will never forget his wit and that laugh he had!!  I would personally like to thank Brandon & Sheree for staying with him and taking care of him these last weeks. Brandon & Sheree, you WILL be rewarded someday for your caring and unselfish hearts!! I KNOW your dad really appreciated all you've done. And to Corey, thank-you for taking him fishing!! It has always been something he really enjoyed. And Amanda, thank-you for all your help in caring for Jack, too!!  We don't know WHY these things happen. That's where our Faith in God comes in. We need to trust God - He never makes mistakes. I know Jack is with the Lord, he assured me of that some weeks ago. He's up there, playing softball, going fishing and being with his dad, his mom, and his brother Robert. And I also know that he and MY DAD are having a good time reminiscing about fox hunting and fishing!! Those two were something else when they got together!!  Peace to you, Jake!! You'll be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing you!! Thank-you for being “Pa” to MY grandkids!! You touched the lives of so many!! And thank-you for all those years we were together. We created some of the BEST memories ever!! You will always have a very special place in my heart!!  From All of my family~We Love You!!  Chris*  Jami Arielle Lynn Kamdin Marlo &  Keegan Marlo

Where to start, I guess it have to be with Him and Pudge and the Post 47. There are so many memories with Him with His adopted Grand daughters( / per Pudge ) Tori and Ally and Pudge's daughter Kelly.He loved People and always Had a way of making You laugh even when you didn't want to.

Thanks for all that You did for Me,  Love Ya Julie Huffman
