When I first met Jack while dating John he opened his heart and arms to me immediately. We danced in the living room to his “Newfie” music. He was a wonderful Father in law. I always considered him another father as he considered me another daughter. He fought a good fight with cancer and never complained. He hates to be told goodbye (always correcting me) so “it’s not goodbye, see you later”

The first time I met Jack while dating John he welcomed me into his heart and arms dancing with me to “newfie” music in the living room. He was a wonderful Father in law. I felt like he was another father as he also considered me another daughter. He fought a good long fight with dignity and never complained or backed down. He will be dearly missed 💔 and in our hearts forever. He always hates me saying goodbye so “it’s not goodbye but see you later”
