Married Etta LaRaine Gardner July 1, 1950 and spent 53 years happy and partners for all time.

Jack's legacy will be his devotion to his family and his love for his granddaughters, Jen and Ash, who were the light of his life and the angels for which he lived.
Jack was a veteran who served his country proudly as a drill sergeant in England during World War II. His professional career was spent with A.M. Castles where he retired, 1983. His lifelong joy came from playing sports, watching sports and celebrating the athletic spirit with Mike in all he participated.
