Mrs Curtsinger, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Mr Curtsinger will be missed. You and your family will be in my prayers.

It's weird being in Arkansas without you Papa Jack... I miss you already. Tell Jesus hi for me, show off your cute little dancing moves to the angels, and enjoy heaven's best chocolate covered cherries. I know it has to be a bazillion times better up there. I love you!

I had the pleasure of working with Jack from 2003 to 2006 at Saatchi & Saatchi X. He set the standard of what it meant to be a true gentleman. He was kind, soft-spoken, even tempered, full of hilarious stories, and one of the hardest working men I've ever known. Back in 2004, Jack helped me and some friends out with a music video where he danced around. 2 hours I will never forget and he was such a good sport. My thoughts and prayers are with Jack's family and friends. I miss him and was saddened to hear the news of his passing. He touched my life and all those that knew him. And here is a link to the music video we made starring dancing Jack. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=40770948682

Jack always said hello. He always had a kind word. He made me smile every day I worked at Saatchi&Saatchi X. He was a special person.

Jack you will be missed by many. You were a wonderful friend and person. I will miss for a short time, we will see each other again. We will keep Saatchi X clean and turn out the lights when we leave. Goodbye old friend.
Chris Poor - Friend

Seeing Jack in the morning at Saatchi was always one of the highlights of my day. He was so incredibly kind. He certainly had fruits of the Spirit. I remember thinking whoever has him for a dad or a grandpa is super lucky. I'm thankful to have known him.
Amy - Colleague

Jack... You were the consumate gentleman and servant. Always willing to help us clean up the messes we made and always with a smile. We are better because we were blessed to cross your path. We are indebted to you for showing us a better way. Thanks for being you.
Steve Snediker - Colleague

Jack was a friend to everyone here. He was truly selfless, and brave, and always willing to lend a hand. It was always comforting to see Jack's smiling face on those late nights working in an almost-empty building (even though he scared me quite a few times). I will miss him very much. Rest in peace Jack.

Jacque and Family, I am so sorry for your loss, but know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Just knowing your Daddy is in a better place will somehow help the pain. Please take care of yourself and call if you need anything. Theresa

I just want to say to you, Loretta, and your and Jack's families, respectfully, that I am sincerely sorry to hear of his passing. I know your hearts are heavy but I hope that treasured memories bring you much comfort as time goes by. Jack and I had our differences but we also had some good laughs. I wish you strength of spirit and peace of mind. God bless you, all. Sincerely, Vicki L. Scott

I'm very sadden for the loss of Jack. He was a very kind man and I enjoyed the times I was in his presence. I very sorry for your loss Loretta. May God bless you and your family and may Jack rest in peace as he is with the Lord now and no longer suffers.
Sharon Walkup - Bailee Franklins Aunt

So sad to hear of Jack's passing. I missed seeing Jack when I left Saatchi & Saatchi X. He was always kind and caring. He made a point to lend a hand when needed...share a smile just because...and provide an ear for talking about things other than work. Jack made a great impact on my life with his joyful soul and loving heart. He worked hard and expected that from his employees. I loved hearing his stories. I'll miss him and will always remember him. I'm sure he was welcomed to Heaven with open arms...who wouldn't want Jack in their presence. Prayers go out to the family for peace during this time.
Travis Jackson - Friend

So very sorry for your loss. Uncle Jack was a good person and a very tall and handsome man. I can still see his smile just as when I was a kid. He will be missed by all who knew and loved him. RIP Uncle Jack, and be assure we will all see you again in heaven and what a glorious day that will be. All my love and prayers to my family whose hearts are breaking right now.
