During the Covid lock down, at the age of 92, Jack started recording and posting new sermons on YouTube (Pastor Jack Eccles / @pastorjackeccles7196) in his continued quest to share the love God has for all of us.
When they celebrated their 70th anniversary, Jack and Gerry were together at Hillcrest Convalescent Center with Jack caring for Gerry, in the late stages of Alzheimer's Disease and unable to take care of herself.
