I always looked forward to visits when we were just kids, when our family would go to Little Rock or Jack Alan and his family would come to Fayetteville. I can remember lots of days when he and I would spend an afternoon in our room reading comic books and hot rod magazines, listening to music and talking about what we were gonna do when we grew up. He was good guy with a great laugh. I will miss you cousin.

I have fond memories of him as a little boy. This hardly seems real to me. He was my nephew. My thoughts and prayers for the family.

When I met Jack for the first and only time a few years ago, I thought how lucky my cousin was to find such a good man. He treated us with kindness and jokes, took us on a tour up in Eureka Springs where their favorite hang out is. He made a very lasting impression on us in that short time. I'm sadden that we were not able to continue to have that friendship and love that goes with family. To his wife Marcia, love you Cuz - hope to see you soon.

Jack, you were an awesome brother-in-law. You made us smile, were always very helpful, and considerate of others. It just isn't going to be the same without you. Knowing I won't see you again in person is very hard, but I sure do look forward to seeing you again in heaven one day! God go with you. RIP Jack.
