This is a tribute post in memory of Jack, a true legend of a man! Who was known famously for his infection warm smile, high spirited soul and friendliness to all that met him during a trip with Phuket Sail Tours.
Dear Jack,
I was truly sadden to hear about your passing and this took me by surprise when Captain Mark broke the news to me, the day before my flight back to Thailand. I was so excited to show you and my new YouTube video with you and the team from last summer when I visited. To this day, the James Bond sunset tour was one of my FAVOURITE highlights of my solo trip and having spent the entire day with you and the team, laughing, sharing jokes, I knew I had struck luckily to have the privilege of meeting such genuine and kind people. My mum and aunty still talk about you too and how special you also made their trip to Thailand from 8 years ago. I even remember when I banged my head on the roof of the cave and you could not stop laughing! You did warn me to be carful, but I guess my clumsiness got the better of me. Thank you for your kindness and the words of wisdom you shared during your story times about the rich history of the Thai elephants. I will truly treasure the memories made and I will take a leaf out of your book. To approach life with fullness and to share the light I have within me, through doing what I love most which is travelling, connecting with people and sharing my journey. Rest in internal peace my friend!
In the end we will be remembered for the life's we touched and if you can take away anything from this, we can all be a little bit more like Jack! Be the reason someone else smiles, the reason someone still believes in goodness and someone's reason that there is hope in humanity. Every now and then, you find a little piece of God in people and when you do, it's such a wonderful thing.
