My first encounter with Jack was on December 2000. I was asked to come and speak at Bethel. They were looking for a pastor and so it was to meet us and to speak for the call. Three men asked me to meet them for coffee on Friday before Sunday. Jack was one of those men. The meeting was to check me out and to see if I would be a good fit for Dawson Creek. Many questions were asked, but Jack’s question was, how I felt about camp. I told Jack I loved camp, had many great experiences, including meeting my wife there. That began a 20+ year relationship with Jack. Over those years we were at camp many times, coffee with the boys, and all kinds of church meetings. Jack was a very special and dedicated man. He always could be counted on to be there. He was a faithful man, to his wife, his family, his friends, his work, to church, and to his Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Over the many years, Jack and I had many conversations in my office. He was a great blessing to Linda and I and we will always value his life and dedication. One day we shall meet again. God bless his family and may you follow his wonderful example. Love Rev. Gordon Warriner.
