Gunner Gatlin, SASS 10274L Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 He was top shelf indeed. The only Colt Single Actions I ever used in a cowboy match were the one's he loaned me when my family and I came to visit the Cowboys. My wife and daughter (and my sister) absolutely feel in love with his charm. God bless your family and friends amigo, RIP Mr. Ivory Jack McCloud.
Captain Clark Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Rest easy knowing he's now riding trail in a better place. You and his family are in our prayers.
Phantom, SASS #54973 Posted March 25, 2019 Author Posted March 25, 2019 IJ was a friend to many...I was just one of those that was blessed to know him. Like I said to Smokestack last night, we're a large family... So unfortunately that means we lose a lot of folks that are important to us. I pray for his family... Phantom

He was one to ride the river with.
Blackwater 53393 Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 I offer my condolences. Peace and comfort to his family and friends.
Assassin Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Sorry to hear this. I shot with Ivory Jack on numerous occasions and spent time after the shoots with him and Bodie. Had fun every time!
Red River Rudy, SASS #8490 LIFE Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Condolences to the family and to you Phantom. We are a big family and when we lose a close one, well it is hard! Prayers for his family. Prayers for you as we all know that close friends become part of us.
Allie Mo, SASS No. 25217 Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Oh Phantom, I so understand. I was also touched by his kindness and humor. When I first met him at The Splash Bar, I was shocked and thrilled that he knew my name. We chatted like old friends, as SASS folks do. After that, I encountered him and Deborah at several conventions and matches. He really had a special smile and personality. I too will miss him. Sincerely, Allie
Buckaroo Bubba Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Thoughts and Prayers! So sorry to hear about this.
Deacon Henry, SASS #53503L Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Sincerest condolences to you and IJ's family and friends.
Jimvg Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 When I first joined SASS and The Cowboys, I was accepted onto the infamous Posse 7. IJ was a main character and I will never forget his kindness, humor and good nature. He will be greatly missed.
PaleWolf Brunelle, #2495L Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 So sorry to hear this. Sincerest condolences to his family and many friends. Just a couple days ago, I mentioned our meeting up at the Splash bar at one of the Conventions, both of us carrying canes to go with our banquet outfits. I asked if his was "loaded" (as was mine); he replied in the affirmative, but we opted to NOT unsheathe the swords within.
Injun Ryder, SASS #36201L Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 I worked with IJ for many years on the board of The Cowboys. He was committed to the club and SASS. He will be missed.
Eyesa Horg Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Phantom, My condolences for the loss of your friend. Prayers Up for his family & friends.
Doc Shapiro Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 I’m going to miss him. As are many others. RIP my friend.

Yul Lose Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 About a year after I got into Cowboy Action Shooting we were sitting around camp at The Ambush At Mill Creek, an annual match on Memorial Day weekend up at The Cowboys in Norco. I still had a lot to learn but I thought I’d complain about some silly rules that they had in this sport. Ivory Jack is there and sits back and hears me out and very nicely invites me over to a quite, isolated area and proceeds to let me know that I needed to learn how to respect the game and all of those who came before me that invented this sport and authored the safety rules that I was complaining about. Those rules were written for a reason and for me, a very green new comer to question the wisdom that went into the safety aspects of this sport wasn’t cool. I wasn’t the only one that had to abide by the rules, every shooter there had to abide by the rules. That little talk left a huge impression on me and even after he wasn’t the TG I called him Governor. Our sport lost a great one on his passing.
Rooster Ron Wayne Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Sorry to hear about the Loss of your Pard. I pray he knew the Lord, And he is watching down from a cloud with safety glasses on watching over you .
Jackrabbit Joe #414 Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Our condolences may he RIP. Thoughts & prayers for family. JRJ
Dusty Chaps, SASS #5925 Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 As you can see, he touched many a life, not just in our world but in his personal world of friends, comrades, co-workers and of course, family, He always has a bit of jerky in his gun cart for my Lab Riley, when I brought him out to the matches. I'm miss him just as the rest of you will. We were all better to know him.
