Family and friends meant the world to Jack and he always enjoyed their company and cherished the love and the devotion to one another. Jack had a wry sense of humor that others thoroughly treasured. He was a member of the Elks Club, played golf, and bested all with his talent of fishing on the Poudre River. This was his favorite spot and where his ashes will be distributed with family and friends gathered later this year. At this time a service will not be held but condolences may be sent to his wife, Janice at bohlenderfuneralchapel.com. Most of all, he had a deep faith in God, and although we will miss him dearly here on earth we know he will be serving as a guardian angel too look after us up in heaven. Through his journey he was a wonderful husband, father, family man, friend and provider for all.
