Jack served in World War II where he received the Bronze Star for valor.  He remained in the Army Reserves until retirement at age 60 and was active in Jaycee’s, the VFW, American Legion, the Eagles Club and was a 4th Degree Knight. He worked for Northern Auto and Distributors Warehouse as a machinist until retirement. He attended Ripon College for 2 years before joining the army.

We, the family, would like to express our deep appreciation to the compassionate care of Asera Care Hospice, the staff of Stoney River Assisted Living facility and to Dr. Allyson Mayeux for their loving care and compassionate support.

Your journey in this life is over and we will all forever miss you in ours.
