Jean and family would like to thank you in advance for your time, consideration and support. 

NOTE: Jack worked for the Montcalm County Road Commission, retiring after 36 years of service. He was an avid Auction attendee and amassed a huge assortment of items that must be sold. Jack also was a very active garden tractor puller and was well know in the pulling circles and won dozens of trophies. He also enjoyed hunting, fishing and working on cars here at their home for over 50 years. The barns were packed to the rafters! Jean was an LPN her entire career and enjoyed gardening and canning vegetables and cooking. They both enjoyed the country lifestyle here on the small hobby farm.
