Jack was a faithful member of Trinity United Methodist Church in Seymour for over 49 years and served his Country proudly in the United States Army. Jack loved the land, he was a second generation farmer and took great pride in his agriculture skills. After selling the farm to his son, he worked for Rose Acres for 13 years and then as a greeter at Wal-Mart for another 13 years. Jack loved people and while considered a shy man, he would talk to anyone and make the customers feel at home. After leaving Wal-Mart, Jack loved to focus on his yard and spend time on his lawn mower making sure that everything was neat and watered correctly. Of all the things he loved in this life, nothing could compare to the love he had for his family.
