Jack was a friend of ours and our family for at least 55 years+. May you be at peace with the Lord.
I live in Mansfield in the UK and frequently attend Kings Mill Hospital which is on the site of a former millitary hospital which i believe displays one of coloner Boggs shirts from his time as a patient. I just wanted to look him up and see a picture of him.
I am very sorry for your loss.
