Tom Rayl, Mesquite, NV
Remembering Jack some 48 years ago as a young man in a strange land (Thailand) during the Vietnam War. We loaded many bombs together and I remember him being uncharacteristically gentle and quiet. He was big and strong as I recall. I hope these difficult days of your loss are softened by the knowledge that he served his country well at a time when many didn't and that he is remembered after all these years as a good guy we all liked. So sorry for your loss. Slow hand salute to you, Jack.
