Jack was a wonderful, loving husband, daddy and “Papa”. He was full of wisdom and great advice. He was a great friend and had such a warm playful heart. The man everyone around him could count on. He was an avid Chiefs and Royals fan "WIN OR LOSE". He loved softball, golf, playing pool, and fishing. He also loved the many years he spent on the softball teams Fike and Waytown Wabbits. But his greatest love was his wife, Teresa, and the family they created together.
