Jack,

I just wanted to say that I am sorry for your terrible loss. I remember meeting you and Peggy on the steps of the State Capitol at a Hands Off My Healthcare Rally and you had your sign! She was so nice and talking with you both was an encouragement to me. My family will be praying for you during this sad time. May God comfort and carry you through it.
