My thoughts and Prayers for the Family. I am Truly Sorry to hear this sad news.. May God send his angels to wrap you in Peace knowing he is with Our Heavenly Father.

To the only boss I ever had. You are the man.
When Bud Stauffer hired me out of a bar in 1989 (just after I got my butt beaten) I thought I was just passing through another job. But Jack saw something in me that I still don't see today.
Jack I love you boss.

And you never knew exactly how crazy I was but now you have a vantage with my mother in heaven to see how actually nuts I am.

To the hood family Jeff, Doug, Ms Peggy love you quys. What a great family.

To Doug, Stacy, Greg ,Jeff My heart goes out to you and your Families. Jack was a really great guy, I'll always remember all the fun we had when Mom,Dad, Kay and I would come for visits. Jack was more of a brother than a cousin to Kay and me. And I really do wish I'd have gone and visited more often. He was always there when you needed him, He loved his Uncle Bill and Aunt Tiny. GOD has a very very wonderful man to help him out. And please remember your dad will always be there for you!

A WONDERFULL MAN HAS BEEN LOST. MY SINCERE CONDOLENCES TO THE FAMILY.MAY HE REST IN PEACE.

Our deepest sympathies to the family. John and Kelly Owen

Please accept my deepest of condolences during this very difficult time, Peggy. You are in my thoughts and prayers and those of many others at Four Winds.

Please accept my deepest sympathies.

My heart is heavy tonight, due to the tragic traffic fatality of this wonderful man and a dear friend. Jack Hood found my dad to have high integrity and work ethic. Subsequently, Mr. Hood hired my dad to run one of his print media delivery operations. When my dad became to ill to continue the job, Mr. Hood was kind enough to let my (then husband), take over the delivery operation. When my then husband and I were trying to purchase a home, Mr. Hood loaned us the money to begin the purchase. Mr. Hood gave my mom and dad financial help, even after my dad had been gone from Mr. Hood's operation for a while.
Jack Hood didn't just "talk the talk". Jack Hood "walked the walk" as well. He practiced what he preached!
As I stated above, my heart is heavy tonight! However, I do know that Mr. Jack Hood was one of my life blessings. God is in the blessings and miracle business, and God showed it by putting Mr. Jack Hood in my, and my family's, lives.
Jack Hood proved that our "founding fathers" were correct. If you work hard, and do it in the manner that God said to work hard, you will be a success and be a very loved person.
Jack Hood was a very loved and respected person, particularly with my family.
