Jack loved playing cards and participated in several Pinochle groups at both the Knights of Columbus and various friends’ houses. He also enjoyed fishing and his fishing group trips were always a yearly highlight. He was an original member of the Greens Bottom Boys with lifelong friends. He loved the Knights of Columbus chicken dinners and American Legion Spaghetti dinners and was always the first to buy a ticket for himself and friends. He was rock solid, steadfast, and absolutely dependable. He could always be counted on. He did not know how to shirk responsibility. He was never pretentious or showy. Gently and quietly, he did what needed to be done. He was a solid Catholic, true Christian and often led the Rosary at Church and even at Lake St. Charles. He was a true follower of Christ and lived that by opening his home to those who needed food and shelter, working in food pantries, working with St. Vincent DePaul and living simply below his means to allow charities and others to benefit.
