    My heart and prayers go out to you and your family. Jack was one of kind. I’ll never forget the bourbon pacifiers that Jack and Mac gave my daughter Tonya when we were all together in Virginia Beach. I cherish all the memories of that time. I know you will miss him. My prayer is that you will be able to celebrate his life and cherish his love for all of you.
