Jack grew up in Weldona; farming and working the trucking business with his father and siblings. After high school graduation from Weldon Valley Schools in 1955 he pursued his dream of teaching that he so dearly loved.

Jack was a remarkable man with such love and devotion to schools and education; it was always for the kids. His heart and soul was kind. He taught (science, chemistry, algebra and physics) to coaching sports (football, basketball and track). He was not only Superintendent of Schools, Principal but ALWAYS A TEACHER and what he loved the most!
A life so beautifully lived deserves to be beautifully remembered. Please join us as we celebrate the life of Jack Americo Lorenzini.
