Mark Miller says
Jack and I became close friends in sixth grade. By the time we were in eighth grade, we had declared ourselves best friends. I never had a truer friend than Jack. He had qualities that I much admired. His ability and desire to make friends laugh was already present in elementary school. He could tell a story like few I’ve encountered. But, what really stood out in Jack was his manifest goodwill towards others. He never had a mean thought or evil intent towards another person in his life…at least that I observed in the years that we were in close association. His desire seemed to be to bring joy to others even as life handed out some disappointments to him. He seemed to have an instinctive love for his fellows. He also had an instinct for those who intended harm, though, he would never say a bad word about them; he simply got quieter and removed himself from the situation. And, if you were his friend, he would quietly suggest that there were better places to be and lead you away. Jack was hardworking, responsible, loyal and polite.
Life puts people on different paths and even the best of friends drift apart. That happened to Jack and me. He left school early and moved into the working world. Our activities seldom intersected. I joined the Air Force and spent most of my life away. Still, I often thought of Jack and wondered what he was doing. It’s comforting to know that he had a family…he was a man with a lot of love to share.
