Jack Coghill gives the camera a high five to show his youthful heart at the age of eighty.
Jack Coghill turned 80 on September 24th, but the celebration was put on hold until Saturday, October 15th, to make sure son, Jeff, was home from his barge run down the Kuskokwim River. Most of the Coghill Clan was there in Nenana to share in the celebration.
Jack's son, Representative John Coghill, and Jack's great-grandsons, Joseph and Alexander Green drove to Nenana for the celebration.
Jack's son, Jeff Coghill, a brage pilot on the Kuskokwim River, saluted a toast to Jack saying eighties years is not near the number of votes Jack has got in his life or, for that matter, the number of hands Jack had to shake to get all those votes.
Connie Karl and Brenda Hewitt catch up on their lives. Connie and Brenda both have worked on Jack's past campaigns for public office.
Graffitti was colorful and the food was incredible. It was a great night for a great man. Thanks to all that drove the icy roads to the party.
The ride home to North Pole was fascinating with the sky moving from a bright moon, to silver linings, to the cloudy sky painted with orange and yellow.
