Jackie enjoyed many things during his life. His biggest love was his family and friends.  

He always made sure to be there to support his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren by attending all the dance recitals, music programs and band concerts he could make it to.  

Jack also tried to attend family reunions, weddings and birthday parties of extended family and friends.  

His second love was truck driving. His love for driving started with his career at Landstar and lasted 30 years. As much as Jack loved his family, he also loved the open road. He shared this love with his family and took them on many wonderful family vacations. His orneriness and laughter always made these trips even more special.  

He will always be remembered for his laughter and smile.
