One of my first friends when I moved to Georgia was Jack ! We shared a love for pedal steel and had many a conversation over the years. I know he is in a better place now but I sure do miss him !!

Sadly, Paul

Jack was special to everyone who knew him. The family has been in our prayers since the first report of cancer, and we will continue to pray for God's peace for them.

Jack was one of the nicest persons you could ever meet. A fine player and a great steel guitar enthusiast. I always enjoyed talking steel with him. Rest in peace, my friend.

Jack was a great man and a great steel guitarist, and also a great part of the Georgia Steel Guitar Association shows. I remember talking with him at a lot of the shows. He had a great personality! RIP Jack. You will be missed

Jack always had a smile on his face. I will always remember when he and Sandra started dating, and he brought her to her first steel guitar show. He was beaming, and she was, too! What a great couple! He will be missed.
