Jack was a man who taught us all about faith and family. He could always be spotted with his rosary at Sunday mass. He exemplified his faith by always helping others. He sponsored children in Guatemala. Jack taught his children and grandchildren about being of service to others, especially those less fortunate. He was humble and kind. Jack believed in the value of hard work, starting all the way back with job as a paper boy. His favorite place was the Lake of the Ozarks with the sun shining on him, beer in his hand while driving the boat. The memories he gave his children and grandchildren will never be forgotten. Most of all Jack's love for his wife, Mary, was unwavering. He loved her more than anything and forever. Jack is survived by his wife, Mary M.
