Leave a tribute for Jack Alan Helton II.
In a senior moment I missed the graveside today because I thought it was at 1 pm. I’m so sorry I didn’t get to pay my respects to Jack’s family. Jack and I were business partners in the mid 80’s. We had a good run. He was so much fun to work with. We maintained our friendship throughout the years. I will really miss him. May he rest in peace.
RIP, MY FRIEND. THE GOOD TIMES WE HAD BACK IN THE DAY WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN. SENDING PRAYERS TO ALL YOUR FAMILY. SO LOMG, UNTILWE MEET AGAIN
As a teacher I remember Jack as being kind, cooperative and smart in our school
I will miss our talks about cars and always making me laugh about something!! You will be so missed til we meet again Cuz/friend 💞
So deeply saddened to hear of Jacks passing. He has been the best neighbor over the last 20 years. He and Lynn always spoiled my Taylor like she was their granddaughter. Lots of wonderful memories made in our time together. May he rest in peace. Lifting family in prayers, love and hugs. Nicole and Taylor
Jack and Lynn where the best neighbors we could’ve asked for, they spend many hours taking care of me when i wanted to come hangout with them and get ice cream. He will be very missed. We love you Jack- Taylor, Tyler, Nicole, Vickie.
