Jack obtained an Associate’s Degree in Health Information Technology at Ivy Tech and started a new career path in 2015 at Indiana Health Information Technology as a Client Business Analyst. Jack truly enjoyed his work, but his coworkers even more.
Jack enjoyed spending his time with Allison and traveling in their camper, playing semi-competitive rounds of putt-putt, and working on projects around the house. John Prine music was also an important influence in Jack’s life. He and Allison attended many of his concerts together and his music frequently filled their home.
