A longtime resident of Shreveport, Louisiana, Jack was a devoted husband, loving father, brother, grandfather, and a friend to many.
Jack enjoyed a fulfilling career as an engineer with General Motors, where his dedication and skill were evident throughout his many years of service. Beyond his professional life, he was deeply involved in his community. He was a proud member of the Masonic Lodge and served as Master of the Lodge in 2008.
An outdoorsman at heart, Jack loved camping and traveling in his RV with his wife, Alice, and treasured time spent fishing with friends at Toledo Bend State Park. Known for his generosity and mechanical know-how, Jack was always willing to lend a hand, able to fix just about anything.
