jack hayslett

hello my name is Dan hayslett.. jack hayslett is my uncle.. i am trying to get in touch with all his old students and faculty to imform everyone of his passing.. uncle jack passed away yesterday 10-4-11 at his home in atchison kansas in his sleep.he always spoke so highly of his teaching and coaching carreer at higginsville high school.we have heard so many wonderful stories over the years about all his adventures while trying to mold young minds. from coaching stories to the time one of his students finally told him after many years that he used uncle jacks old hot rod to take out his date and ended up taking the car to the race track and running it down the strip several times.. im sorry we dont have any funeral arrangements to post at this time but we are waiting for a family member to get back into the country from a cruise vacation.i can be reached by email or by phone if anyone can help me get the word out.the family would love to extend an invite to his funeral and share some stories they might have .any help or advise would be greatly appreciated.i hope i have posted this in the correct place.
