Jack Ringler Obituary

Excerpt from, Fisherman's Prayer

When in the Lord's great landing net

and peacefully asleep

That in His mercy I be judged

Big enough to keep.

Jack Pond was also called Son, Daddy, Brother and Friend and Jack was an addict. The cause of death is assumed, drug overdose. Unable to fight his demons any longer, we believe he is now at peace.

Jack was loved by many, more powerfully than he could take to heart. He is survived by Mother, Father, Grandmother, Sister and Brother and his best effort, daughter Brooklynn. Jack was charismatic, truly tender-hearted. We believe he would have us all love and support one another, not build regrets, play as hard as we work, and go fishing often. Would that there be progress and that addiction cease to be a deadly condition. Jack, you are forever my Beautiful Boy.

In lieu of flowers, the family is encouraging contributions to a Savings Account for Jack's daughter.

There will be a memorial service held on November 25, 2014, at Center for Spiritual Living at 4:00 pm.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Thank you to all for your love and support. It has helped though a very dark time. Many have asked on what assistance they can provide during this time. As a family, we are respectfully requesting that any funds that would go towards travel, hotel fees, cards, flowers, gifts or any other accommodations be replaced with a small contribution towards the trust fund of Brooklyn Mary Ringler. Your gift, through her father Jack, will help support her through her future challenges. I personally want to thank each and every one of you for your thoughts, concerns, and prayers. Together.... in Jacks memory we will overcome this unfortunate event.

Dike and Mary, it is these times that words seem so small and few. We mourn your loss as it is something that any parent should not have to experience. I wish I could remove some of that pain in your heart for just a moment so you would get a slight reprieve. My heart is there should your need someone to help share the pain, my hands for strength should you need to hold them, and my shoulders should you want to share weight of your pain. Unite as a family, take special care of yourselves and that beautiful granddaughter. Deepest sympathy ... Lourdes

It is sad when drugs win. As a recovering addict for almost 10 years, I am grateful I was able to get help when I was 17 and not have a choice to walk out. I want to encourage everyone who is struggling to ask for help, to refuse to let the drugs win. Life is short, and everyone deserves to live a healthy, sober life. Prayers to Jacks daughter, family, and friends. RIP with Quinn

I am so moved by this beautiful tribute to someone whose life was brief but his love, deep. It seems that those who are sensitive struggle the most...I am deeply saddened by Jack's passing and by the path that brought him here, but I am so grateful that he left a beautiful piece of himself behind. I cannot attend the Memorial (will be out of town for Thanksgiving) but send lots of love to Mary and Jack's family and friends. May the memories make you smile at this time of loss, Tamara Brody
