The Jim Jam spent some time, recently, with Jack Meteyer. Jack is 97 years old and has led an amazing life. Plucked from an orphanage at age 5 by the Meteyer family, Jack grew up in Massachusetts. He joined the army at age 18 and soon joined the Air Corp. Jack had a 30 year career in the military and then a 20 year career at Boeing. Jack shares many of is life stories with us. We hope you enjoy his journey.

The JimJam welcomes Will Graham, a resident of Olympia sine the 1973. Will has had an extraordinary life beginning with his upbringing in what was the Panama Canal Zone. Will shares his adventures in his life and what he has been doing in retirement. Specifically, Will shares his challenges stemming from the loss of his wife, Denise, in retirement, and how he navigated the changes that occur when such a life event happens. Loss of a spouse is something most of us will experience and we feel Will sharing his experience can provide insight for all of us. We are grateful for Will and his openness with his struggles and eventual happy transition to a new life.

The JimJam is honored to sit down with former Seattle Seahawk Mack Strong. Mack has been voted one of the top 50 players in Seattle Seahawk history in celebration of their 50 years as a member of the National Football League. You will hear Mack talk about growing up in Columbus, Georgia, his time at the University of Georgia, his career as a 15 year veteran of the Seattle Seahawks, and his post football life. Mack has a very rich and satisfying life and we are fortunate to be able to hear about it. Enjoy!
