I first encountered Jack as a stranger on a bicycle. He always wore odd goggles and a hat and he rode that bike all over town. I learned Jacks name when some friends opened a bar. Jack would come around and sweep up or what not. When I tried to be a partner in that bar I felt bad for taking advantage of Jack. Jack was mentally handicapped. He would do anything you asked of him for a beer. We paid him from the tip jar and made sure he had a beer or 3. He did not get rich by any means and he was always grateful for anything we gave him. The community actually thanked us for including Jack. It seemed everyone knew him. Jack was an absolute nice guy. Jack died tonight riding his bike home from his self appointed duties at the bar. Travel well old friend.
