I have so many memories dad. From camping when we were little to you building a deck in a week for my graduation party! Walking me down the aisle for my wedding. Always telling me how proud of me you are and how much you loved my family. I still have the 'wrapping paper' you used when YOU gave ME a present on Father's day. I love you so much dad! I'm so grateful for all the time we got to spend together over the last year. I'm gonna miss you so much!

On behalf of the Class of 1980, we send thoughts and prayers to your family. It is unfortunate that we have lost a classmate at such a young age. May your memories be within your hearts forever. A Father's Poem ~ You'll never forget your father's face, the sound of his voice, the gentleness of his touch. They let you know you were loved. You'll never forget the stories he told, the traditions he handed down. They let you know who you are. You'll never forget the lessons he taught, or the things he stood for. They are his gift and your legacy. You'll never forget, and you'll always know, that you honor him every day. In how you live and who you are. To this beautiful family in his life, may his light continue to shine in your lives. With love from the DeForest Class of 1980. Patti (Paske) Jackson

You always made people laugh and warmed up a room with your personality. I enjoyed shooting pool with you and my dad still swings his pool stick like a pendulum when it's crunch time and the opponent is shooting which we picked up from shooting with you. Thoughts and prayers to your family. Rest in peace my friend.
