Jack retired in 1970 as MSgt and then went to work for many years at URM. Jack had many hobbies including wood working, reading and writing poetry. He loved cars, track meets, traveling, Christmas, penguins and Walmart. Jack delighted in telling stories about his past and, above all, he loved his family. He founded the Satterlee Croquet Invitational; now in its 32nd year -- bringing generations together for fun every summer. Jack was a man of integrity.
