Posted on: Tuesday, May 28, 2019I think of Jack often and feel bad that I didn’t know he had moved to IOOF. He was so kind to my mom Irene Benum. My family and I always say if it wasn’t for Jack mom would have died a very unhappy lady. Jack was a very kind man to everyone. I knew his sister Mina and she was also a very kind lady. I hope his passing was peaceful and Jack will always be in my thoughts.
Sincerely
Bev, my sister Terry and my bothers Frank and Martin
