Jack, Friendly cheerful and always smiling. When visiting my parents at Bonneau who lived across the street, he'd make a point to stop over. All the big family dinners and cook-outs he attended and loved to eat. Fishing he enjoyed checking up the catch. My father and Jack would have there little projects to work on. Being Retired from the Marines and he and my father sitting on the front porch joking and remenencing about the Government and the Military. Amie and I will miss him dearly and may the Gods provide the most beautiful of manchions in heaven. My Mother bless her sole now passed and in heaven waiting above she and Jack were like Brother and Sister always smiling and willing to help and do anything for people needing help.

To The Family Of Jacques Lefever:
Heartfelt sympathy to all of you. You were blessed to have him in your lives. We first met while Jock was a Police Officer. Years later, we met again when I joined him as a member of the OES, Morning Star Chapter No. 121. Jock was a faithful & very devoted member. Jock was always ready to lend a helping hand whether you needed it or not, he was there. Jock was happy with a big smile on his face. He was happy & joking at our recent OES bbq fundraiser & Installation of Officers. The last conversation we had was him giving words of encouragement, telling me how proud he was of me being installed as A.M. of Morning Star this year & how well I would do. Jock will be missed.

He was an awesome grandpa. Even though the past few years i haven't really been able to see him much. The last time i saw him was last year at my sister's graduation. To this day i still remember him coming over to our house and playing Yatzee and eating mom's lasagna. He loved mom's lasagna and i don't blame him one bit. My sister n i were angles for him in this program but i can't remember the name of it. My grandpa did a lot of good things in his lifetime. We'll miss him dearly but we know he is in a much better place now but i know for a fact that i will be with him some day.
