I remember Jack as my first soccer coach along with Chris. He was a very fun and inspiring man. I would talk to him from time to time as I was a friend and classmate with his daughter Kim. I remember one funny story he told me one day. He said he took Andy's umbilical cord stump after it fell off, and put it in Kim and Jack's cereal box to see if they would find it in their bowl of cereal! As a kid I was horrified but laughing hysterically, and never knew if he was being serious with me...

Chris- oh, how so many memories of you and Jack came flooding back when reading this. The little step stool is still in our Master Bthrm- your handwritten note too is front and center reminding me of our many laughs and stories. I smile often bc of it thinking back on those days. Miss you tremendously and will be praying for you. May you relive all the fond memories you have and find peace too. Love, Anastasia

Jack was a very good friend of mine for many years. We work together at Iowa public service and MidAmerican Energy. I was an apprentice electrician when I first met Jack when he came to work At Iowa public service. Jack taught me a lot and help me through my apprenticeship. I also played soccer with Jack. He was one of the nicest guys you could ever meet. He was always willing to help anyone. And most of the electricians at the power plant leaned on him for his skill and knowledge. Jack loved...

Jack and I played Babe Ruth baseball back in the 60's. Jack was my catcher when I pitched. The last year we played together I pitched 2 no hitters and 2 one hitters. Jack was the only one who could catch me. What a nice nice guy he was. Fond memories, Mike Allner

Dear Chris and family, It´s with much sadness that I just read of Jacks passing. He helped me through the electrical program at IPS when we worked together at Port Neal. He´s tutoring was the thing that saved me, that and all the stories about his time in the service. We spent several nights trouble shooting down at Neal. I will always hold him high because he was one of the best always willing to share and always willing to help. May he rest in peace.

Chris and family, so sorry to hear of Jacks passing. Worked with Jack at IPS/MidAmerican, at the power plant and again in the Control Center. Jack loved to teach whether it be new controllers or young boys playing soccer. He spent time with my son coaching and teaching him skills on the soccer field, will never forget my time with Jack. College classes, work, or the Soccer Field.

I worked with Jack in the Sioux City control center. He taught me a lot and was always fun to be around. So sorry for the family's loss.

May you rest in peace with the Lord.
