{Big Jack}




(Randy and his dad Jack
circa 1989 wedding rehearsal dinner)


Today would have been Jack's birthday. 
 With Carol in town, Jack is really in our thoughts.


Take a good look at the difference in size between Randy and his dad.....
And you thought Randy was a big guy!!!
One of Jack's hands could cover my entire pin head!
He had a beautiful deep voice that soothed babies as they were laying on his chest.
He was the truest gentle giant.
I remember a story that he told, 
of a stranger that had walked up to him.
Her face hit Jack at about belly button level.
She slowly tilted her head upward to meet Jack's eyes, all the while having a look of disbelief due to his large stature.
Once they met each other's gaze, she said with wide eyes and gaping mouth,
"J.e.s.u.s. C.h.r.i.s.t!"
Jack chuckled and responded,
"Nah, you can just call me Jack"
:)


Love that man!


(It's a little known fact that Jax is named after Jack)
