A sad loss for our country. R.I.P Mr Jack Merritt.
There is a star that lights up the dark tonight A star in heaven so far yet so bright, where once there was a man. A man with compassion and care in his hands. Now we feel a void in our land. A beautiful spirit, a rare kind of man. His memory will live in these lands. There is a star in the sky tonight. A star that shines on the lonely and weak of the night. A star that will always burn bright. Jack - your star will never stop shining.
