He Was Just Such A Great Man - Jack Nutter

If you've listened to the introductory episode of We Lost A Good One, you know that this whole thing was in part, inspired by an interaction I had with Jack Nutter. He was the man who greeted me with, "we lost a good one" at my grandfather's funeral a few years back. That moment stuck with me and inspired me to try and have more of these conversations with that same energy. I'm tempted to fill this episode description with all the reasons people in my hometown of Ovid-Elsie look up to and appreciate Mr. Nutter, but that's not the point of the podcast so I'll do my best to focus on who he wanted to focus on, his childhood pastor and teacher, Pastor Bob Fry. A golden gloves boxer as well, Jack shared stories of a man he looked up to in his youth many years ago in Manton, MI. Someone who exemplified a combination of physical strength, quiet wisdom and complete calm. Someone who could get you to hold yourself to a higher standard without even saying a word. We veered off topic quite a bit, just like I knew we would and honestly wanted to. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.
