So sorry for your loss. He was my post office buddy. I have a picture of him and one of his dogs that had passed away a couple years ago. I believe it was the one with 3 legs. I have been trying to call c# and no answer so I decided to google and now Im so sad my ALABAMA-ROLL TIDE friend is now in heaven. RIP

Eric and family, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Jack. I have written insurance for Jack the past 9 years, and he was always a pleasure to work with. He always shared jokes. made me laugh and left the office with everyone smiling. Several of us had dog treats in our desk to share with his dogs with the latest being Maddie. We will all miss his visits.
