A five year General Surgery residency program at the Veterans Administration Hospital in Dayton, Ohio followed, where he served as Chief Resident in 1958.

Also a great fan of golf and tennis, he was a longstanding member of Brown's Run Country Club in Middletown, Ohio, Crystal Downs Country Club in Frankfort, Michigan, Wild Dunes Golf and Tennis Club, Isle of Palms, SC, The Keenland Club in Lexington, Kentucky, and Middletown Tennis Club. Jack will be remembered as a skilled and compassionate surgeon, lover of, nature, science, storytelling… and world's greatest Grandpa. Preceded in death by his youngest son, John N.
