To the Jardine Family, Both Jerry and I are saddened by the loss that your family has been through. Your mom and dad were such special people, no one can replace them. We all had wonderful times when we were at the marina for years, parades, our trip to Isle Royale together, winter parties at the motel, and just hanging out and socializing. Those are time we won't every forget. The service at the church was special and all the comments from people were so nice and also funny remembrances. Sorry we did not get to converse with all of you, but there will be time for that in August. Take care and hang on to those great memories. Carol

Dear Jardine Family. So saddened to hear about Skip and Eleanor. Wish we could have vistited with them. Was planning on coming to the memorial but my husband ended up in the hospital so couldn;t make it. So many happy memories of Port Wing Marina, parties, happy hour, fishing, pig roast, so many memories . My prayers and love goes out to you all.
