To Aunt Marge, and Cousins Bob, Jim and Bruce -- I was so saddened to hear of the loss of Uncle Jack and send heartfelt sympathy to you and all of your families. As my sister Barbara has already said so well, Aunt Marge and Uncle Jack were a big part of our lives as we grew up. I remember, for example, going on my first camping trip with all of you, in your tent, soon after Bruce was born. Uncle Jack was always there with his wonderful smile and was a such a strong, dependable person. I know your loss is great, as is the loss of the whole family and Uncle Jack's community. My thoughts and love are with you all -- Marilyn

To Aunt Margie and cousins Bob, Jim and Bruce, Joe and Amy join me in expressing our sympathy and sharing the sorrow we all feel at the loss of Uncle Jack. Aunt Margie and Uncle Jack have been an institution in my life�always there and so giving and supportive. We all have so many happy memories of family gatherings at your home. I feel so fortunate to have had such an uncle, as I know Bob, Jim and Bruce are keenly aware of their good fortune in having such a father. And, Aunt Margie, I know there is nothing I can say that will lessen the grief and pain you are feeling, but you have been so blessed to have such a loving husband for so many years, and to have his sons and his grandchildren and great grandchildren there with you now. We will, of course, be sending a donation in Uncle Jack�s memory to St. Stephen�s, and will keep all of you in our thoughts and prayers. With love to you all, Barbara
