On August 25th, Jack joined his wife and his son in heaven. He lived a happy and active 95 years, a life full of croquet games, card games, time spent on his beloved Madeline Island, cheering on his MN and WI sports teams, and spending time with his family and many loved ones.

Jack is preceded in death by his wife Marilyn, his son Bob and his siblings Barb Demulling (Leo), Lois Gregerson (Gene) and Bill Nygren (Pat).

He is survived by his sons Bill (Maggie) and Jim (Liz), daughter-in-law Deb, sister-in-law Carol, and his grandchildren Madelyn (Scott), John (Juno), Mark (Laura), Michelle Ochoa (Sebastian), Jason (Krista), and Laura Adesoro (Sebastian), his great-grandchildren Ellie, Vayda, Willa, Juliana, Noa, Declan, and Norah, and his friend and companion Kathy Sheehan.
