Jack had been a member of the 3rd and 4th Degree Knights of Columbus and the Men's Club at St. Mary's. His interests included woodworking, fishing, gardening, and farming.

One of Jack's greatest pleasures was spending time with his grandsons swimming, building projects, and attending their sporting events. The annual deer hunt on the family farm will never quite be the same without Jack.
