I’m so sorry for you’re loss. You are all in my thoughts and my heart. Sending you love and light in this difficult time.
When I was growing up Jack and Sandy were like my brother and sister. Jacks mom was my dads sister and we always had to live less than a mile from them. Growing up dad and I went to every football game and swim meet, even when he was in collage. My dad gave Jack 5 dollars for every touch down he made.
At times if he ever heard that I may have done somthing wrong he called me out but he was still there to be my proctor. Even when he sent me e mail jokes I would have the chance to tell him how proud I was of him, and I loved him. The CHS reunions won’t be the same . I will miss him and will always be proud of Jack.

I am so sorry to hear the news. Growing up I spent so much time at CC’s. Her family was like a second family to me and embraced me when my father passed as a kid. I have so many amazing memories from childhood thanks to CC’s family. My love goes out to all of you. ❤️
We are so sorry to hear of your loss of John. Please know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers during this sad time.

When I join you we will relive our times together. Looking for my golf clubs in the woods and lakes; hearing your jokes for the 11th time; creating the multiple eye rolls from BA; trying to recall the residence hall you lived in attending Notre Dame; and the pride you exhibited in your children. Our prayers and thoughts to all the Curchins who we will continue to love.

Betty and CC, So sorry to hear of the loss of John to you both. I have many good memories of when we were all back at the softball field watching and coaching and cheering our girls on. . I know your entire family will miss him very much, and may your faith and fond memories help you get through this difficult time.
