Known to many as, "The Oldman", Dad had a bad temper with a big heart, but you always wanted to be on his good side. He was very black and white, he either liked you or did not and he was the judge of that. He loved bowling, golf, and atv-ing, his passion was hunting with his sons', Ken, Kerry, and Kelly.
He was a member of the NRA. He enjoyed in his younger years dancing with mom, Lois, who was by his side in his final moments after fifty-eight years of marriage. Always remembered and never forgotten! But Missed Forever!
Jack is survived by his loving wife, Lois; sons, Ken, Kerry (Linda) and Kelly (La); six grandchildren and four great grandchildren. He is preceded in death by his parents, Rex and Helen; brother, Ray; sister, Joan and daughter, Jackie.
