Jack Schoenhoff Obituary
According to Jack's wishes, cremation rites will be accorded, and no services will be held at this time. Johnson Funeral Home in Effingham, IL is assisting the family.
Memorials may be sent directly to the veteran program of the donor's choice. Online condolences may be shared at www.johnsonandsonsfh.com.
Jack was born on July 30, 1931 in Teutopolis, IL, the son of Albert and Helen (Bergfeld) Schoenhoff. He married Ruby McWhorter in September of 1952 and to this union were born 7 children. He later married Dolores Wendte in October of 1989 and she preceded him in death.
Jack greatly enjoyed carpentry and loved donating his wood crafts. He could often be found tinkering around the woods on his tractor. He was a hard worker, always on the go, and he instilled these qualities in his children.
Jack is survived by his children, Bernadine Foltz, Cinderella (Bill) Kenter, Jean Schoenhoff, Tina (Dennis) Carson, Joseph Schoenhoff, and Richard Schoenhoff; and many grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his parents; wife, Dolores; son, LaVern Schoenhoff; and siblings, Naomi Funneman, Maxine Dixon, and Gary Schoenhoff.
