Retirement

"Jack has grown older now but he is just as proud, he stands with his shoulders back and head up. There is something different from his younger years, an essence of wisdom and experience stands firmly on his face. He has pearly white hair, which is just as thick as any man’s. Jack is not a big man, but he has a strong and confident body."
