My sincere sympathies to Welma, Heidi, Elizabeth and their families Jack was an essential connection to both our family's history and that of Big Cedar Lake. Now, with his knowledge and wisdom gone, there is a huge void that can never be filled. Although we were first cousins, we were not close in age; however, Jack played a significant role in my childhood; there were numerous visits over morning coffee, card and game nights, snowmobiling, and bonfires (corn roasts) among the six cottages on the Wharrick side of the family. While these memories may not be recent, they will endure. The values Jack upheld and the love he generously offered will carry on through Heidi, Elizabeth, and his grandchildren. His kindness, spirit, and presence truly made a meaningful impact on all his family and friends. Now he can rest in peace, with the knowledge that he lived a good life where he was profoundly loved and will always be remembered. Nancy
