Condolence From: Dan Oystryk
Condolence: Jack was a sourse of strength and courage.

"Courage is an independent spark from heaven's bright throne, by which a man's soul stands raised, triumphant, and alone."

May God give all who grieve Jack's passing, the strength and courage to love life as we look forward to being with Jack again in Heaven some day.

Condolence: We are very sorry for your loss Adeline, Jim and Les. Every memory I have of Jack was of someone that was always happy and joking, even after he was diagnosed with cancer. He was always full of energy, kind and generous. It was obvious that he lived a rich and full life, even though it was cut short.

Condolence: It's been a month since Jack left us to go to a better place. Free of pain and free of the evils of this world. We missed him then and we miss him still. Our sincerest prayers of comfort go out to Adeline (Sam), Les and Jim. Some day when we meet again I know he will have that confused smile on his face, as if to say, why the sullen look? Then that big smile of is will light up Heaven as if darkness ever lingered there. The memory of the man with that great smile comforts us still today.

Condolence: Whatever we touch, we leave fingerprints.. As we touch other's lives, we leave our identity. Life is better when you are happy; but life is at its best when others are happy because of you I know many people here are happy because of you brother. Brother, God gave you an opportunity to touch peoples hearts and you are here with us today mourning the death of our Father. Again I wish I could join you people during this difficult time...but I know our hearts and thoughts are together... My family and I are having you in our prayers.
Nothing is more important and worth practicing than being a channel of God's blessing and I know we are channel of God blessing in many ways brother, we have our youths (Falcons) as our blessing, people of Samburu through Tusker Adventure Travel as our blessing, my father's siblings as our blessing. So why should the Almighty not grant you peace, love and Harmony...... Why are we still condoling each other because of the deaths of our beloved ones? As I always say, everything happened for a reason...
I know you love nature as I do and I am sure you understand that nothing in nature lives for itself. Rivers do not drink their own water ; Trees do not eat their own fruits.The sun does not shine for itself; and Flowers do not spread their fragrance for themselves. Living for others is a rule of nature. We were all born to help each other. No matter how difficult the situation you find yourself in ; still do good to others. You have our thoughts and prayers.
God bless you
Your Samburu brother

Condolence: Jack was our neighbour for 19 years, and he was always so helpful and kind. Whenever we needed any help, Jack would go out of his way to help us. He was a generous and kind man, and I will never forget all he has done for my family and I. Over the years, Jack and his family became friends to us, and he will be sorely missed. Condolences to his family.

Condolence: Jack was my second Dad, I will always remember his cheerful spirit and can do attitude. I grew up with him and his " getter done" mantra made me a stronger person. I will always remember him telling me to be the best I can be! Cheering me on through football, and being there when I was doubting myself. Jack, you made me who I am today...thank you!! You will be missed
