My deepest condolences to Jacks family. Over the years I have though fondly of many happy times spent the MDonald family...(when thinking of Roy I automatically remember his dearest friends.) When I think of Jack, I remember how he loved to sing those old Irish songs. In sympathy Marie - Posted by: Marie G Gilmour ( Tester) ( ) on: Sep 27, 2014
