**The following was lovingly written & provided by Jack's family:
Jack attended school in St. Louis and Fulton, MO. After high school he was drafted into the army for 2 years. While in the army he earned the Bronze Service Star.
When he returned from Korea he moved to Tulsa, OK where he worked in the finance business for awhile until he decided to go into business for himself. It looked like all the boys in the car business on 3rd street were getting rich so that is where he went and stayed in the car business for 30 years.
In 1984 he moved to Mannford and soon was buying commercial buildings in and around Mannford.
Jack loved his horses and spent a lot of time with them. His favorite sport was fishing. He was on the dock every day if it was at all possible. He always seem to catch something and often gave it to his friends, family, and neighbors.
Services were held at 10:00AM Wednesday, January 29, 2014 at
