Jack knew how to whisper in a troublemakers ear and cause them to vanish.
Allways imagined the thinhs he may have whispered.
In my head i hear jack in the very most polite voice ," um...it might be best if you slept a mile down the road, out of all the comotion of the law searching for you."
He may have said....

Jack was a compulsive giver.
He would make up an excuse like," no, its fine.....i dont need it".
When he did...

Jack said you cant tell stupid people nuthin and that they would learn soon enough.
a woman with burger size patties of thigh missing from chaffing asked if he thaught she would be fine to continue.
Jack spoke calmly of her imediate danger of septic and she laughed and walked on bowlegged.
It was those moments looking into jacks eyes, i had a friend who saw as i, the worlds woes.

The inner family is cryin hard now.
But we will stop .
Jack was a big man. We have alot to cry about.
We all feel lost.
thats cause the biggest tree fell and were standin in shock.
Later, and forever, we will dance.
We will revere the place and make it sing with the laughter of hikerdom.
So many tears cause many new green things to grow.
Just had a good long cry.
may have a short one later.
Dosnt matter.
I have him still in this family.
