Dear Joan, and Family:

We are saddened by the news of Jack's passing. We know this is a terribly sad time for all of you.

We remember the good days and fun times with Jack, you and the kids starting back in Montreal at Standard, and then in Toronto and, of course, at Hideaway Trailer Park. Almost 60 years of wonderful memories that we have shared. Although this part of life may have passed, we are grateful that we had the opportunity of knowing Jack and laughing with him.

We know that as we miss Jack, you will miss him much more. Much strength to you and the family as you face the coming days, months and years.

Love to you all.

Ken and Joan and Family
