Jack grew up in the Ozarks of Missouri in a family of farmers and sharecroppers. It was there where he hunted and trapped with his grandfather and developed a love of nature and the outdoors. His family moved to California when he was a teenager. There he married and started a family. As a father he enjoyed family activities such as biking, skating and yard games with neighborhood families and friends. In mid-life he spent a lot of time in the San Gabriel mountains of California, hiking and panning for gold. After retirement he joined his daughters in Ohio and took up painting and photography, his favorite subjects being animals and landscapes. Jack went into nursing care some time ago due to developing dementia. He always had a good sense of humor and was loved by the nurses, caregivers, and other residents of his nursing home. He will be missed by all.

The family will receive friends to pay tribute to and celebrate the life of Jack at Vito-Nero Funeral Home 6130 Turney Rd. Garfield Hts., OH 44125 on Monday December 11, 2023 from 4:00P.M.-5:00P.M.
