He had a passion for fishing, hunting, and the outdoors. Jack loved playing with all of his dogs over the years and any that crossed his path. Jack loved nature and inherited a love of birds from his Nana.
Jackson was beyond compassionate; not just to his many friends but also to strangers who he would often engage in conversation wanting to know more about their lives. Jack judged no one and embraced everyone.
He is survived by his father, Richard Meleady of Morgantown, WV and his mother, Linda Schwaner of East Montpelier, VT, and his brother, Cole Meleady of Burlington, VT. Jackson will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and colleagues.
