My world was rocked a little this morning after hearing that my good friend Jack had passed. I was very lucky to have talked with him a few months back at length about life. Jack was one of the most compassionate businessmen I have dealt with in my time here in Tulsa, OK. My condolences to you the family in this time of sadness.

My parents even referred to Jack as "Dural's brother" because we were so close growing up. I may have lost my best friend but what will live on are his smile, whit, understanding & strength, these are the things I will remember.
