Jack was a proud alumnus of Villanova University, served as an officer in the United States Navy, and worked professionally as a mechanical engineer in a variety of industries. He was a man of deep faith, and was an active member of St. Margaret of Cortona Church, serving for many years as a Lector, and was a former member of St. Brendan the Navigator Church. Jack was a member of the Board of Trustees of North Central Mental Health Services for several years. In his younger days, he was involved in coaching youth sports. He enjoyed a cold beer and a good cigar, and loved to share WSJ “clippings” with his children and anyone else he thought might find them interesting and informative. Above all, Jack’s greatest joy and purpose in life was being a devoted husband and father.
