Jack was a hardworking man. Starting in 1956, he began his career in the service station business, eventually growing it into a multi-location enterprise before transitioning into the oil and gas industry. Along the way, he developed a keen sense for commercial real estate and development, which continued through the rest of his life. Throughout his time, he was devoted to developing business partners and friends, which brought him great happiness.

A private service will be handled by Lakeview Funeral Home, in Wichita, Kansas.
