Jack's passing is just so hard to comprehend as he visited us just 5 day before, as he so often did. He was healthy, happy and still riding his bicycle most days. Thank you Jack for always being there, to help vegies and transport every time we needed it. He will be very much missed. Our thoughts are with Jack's family at this sad time.
Jenny and David Petrie, also Philip and Therese, Graeme and Ffion, Dean and Audra, along with all their children.
