19 Jan 2024Uncle Jack was larger than life, he was a hardworking man who loved Aunt Delores and his family.
As a kid I remember riding his “horse” Biff, it took Aunt Delores telling him “quit telling her that, Martha honey Biff’s a dog” and Uncle Jack let out a thunderous laugh and a big ol grin.
I remember as a kid watching them dance together and thinking when I grow I want what they have….and I have.
Say hello to Grandma Shaffer , my mom Jeanne and Aunt Delores…I hope to see you all again on the other side
