So sorry to read of Jacks passing. Known him since I was a little kid. What a great man. He will be missed dearly. God bless you folks.
So sorry to hear of Jack’s passing. I have so many memories of time spent with him and his family throughout my childhood. I remember his smile and friendly greeting whether I saw him at the Vinland fair, church , community or school events. Sending love and prayers to his family.
“Dear family, please accept my sympathy as you mourn, you are in my prayers for peace at this time. May comfort from God’s Word touch your hearts and give you strength to cope with the emptiness loss can bring. Better days are soon to come, It Is Jehovah’s promise. Revelation 21;4. John 11;25
So sorry to learn of our cousin Jack’s passing. Donna and I met him and a few other cousins once for breakfast in Lawrence. Donna remembers playing baseball in the area between the house and barn at the home place with all the brothers. And other times sitting around the living room of the home place listening to them playing their guitars, fiddle, and banjo and singing old songs. She remembers enjoying Aunt Fannie’s cooking on the old wood stove. In the wintertime they would sit on a big scoop shovel and slide down the snowy hills. All of this was when our Dad, Emil Saile brother of Joe, was alive. Sharon was not born yet, so she missed out on lots of fun. We did have a family reunion once at Bob and Donna’s farm. Most of us were there. We send our deepest sympathy to all of the family.
So sorry to learn of Jack’s passing. I remember him as always smiling and happy. Our “King” get togethers with grandma and grandpa King, Donna and Jack and kids are treasured memories. May he Rest In Peace.
I am saddened to hear of his passing. May your family find joy and comfort in the many shared memories of Jack. He was a quiet gentle man.
So sorry to hear of Jack passing away. A plethora of memories of him. His smile pretty much says it all. Simply a great person. Too many memories of him to expound upon—-all good memories, whether Vinland fair or as an implement parts guy extraordinaire The man knew Allis Chalmers machinery—-front to back. Forty -plus years later and living in Oregon— I still remember and will never forget. My deepest sympathy to the Saile family.
I’m so sorry to hear about Jack’s passing. I drank coffee with him for many years at McDonalds on 23rd Street. He was such a kind and friendly man. I enjoyed the many hours we spent laughing and visiting. My deepest sympathies to your family at this difficult time.
