Obituary of John David "Jack" Shockley
John David "Jack" Shockley, age 24, of Indianapolis, Indiana passed away on Wednesday, August 12, 2020. Jack was born April 25, 1996 in Indianapolis, Indiana. Jack graduated from Bishop Chatard High School (2014) and Indiana University (2018) and was working at Green Bean Delivery as a valued and well-loved employee. He was known by friends to be a rascal who resisted all things trendy, especially in the way he dressed. He was blessed with a sharp wit, an old soul, and the beginnings of deep wisdom. Jack was a member of Christ the King Catholic Church, and was named after St. John of the Cross, whose writings inspired him. As much as he enjoyed the company of his beautiful friends, he also took time to himself to think, read, and write. Jack was thoughtful, generous, and kind, with a heart for the poor and disadvantaged. Everybody doesn't like somebody, but nobody didn't like Jack. Jack is survived by parents, Steve and Cheryl Shockley; sister, Grace Liegibel (Brandon); brother, Peter Shockley; grandmother, Evelyn Gray; and nephew, Owen Liegibel. Jack was preceded in death by his grandfather, David Gray; grandfather, Quentin Shockley; and grandmother, Roberta Shockley. Visitation will be Monday, August 17, 2020 from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM at Christ the King Catholic Church, 5884 Crittenden Ave, Indianapolis, Indiana. Please follow social distancing guidelines when attending. The family will greet guests at the front of church from a distance. His Mass of Christian Burial will be Tuesday, August 18, 2020 at 10:00 AM at the church with burial to follow in Our Lady of Peace Cemetery. Please be mindful of the limited capacity of the church. The service will be live streamed on the Facebook page of Feeney-Hornak Keystone Mortuary and viewable on Jack's obituary page at www.feeneyhornakkeystone.com.
