Jack was born on November 21, 1941, in Cincinnati, Ohio, and grew up in Covington,

Kentucky. He was a Boy Scout and developed an early love of the outdoors. Jack was

employed for almost 40 years by Heekin Can/Ball Corporation, where he excelled in the Sales

Department. He was a friend to all and never met a stranger.

Jack loved motorsports, was an avid Cincinnati sports fan, and seldom missed a Notre

Dame football game. He was proud of his Irish heritage, loved St. Patrick’s Day, and will forever

be remembered for enjoying a cold beer at home in his “Florida” room. Jack thoroughly enjoyed

retirement and spent many days taking long walks with his wife, Celeste. He was always

“tinkering” around at home and loved spending time with his Grandchildren. He had the gift of

“gab” and was quite the storyteller. Jack loved history, watching hummingbirds, and entertaining

guests and family. He was loved and will be missed by all.

Visitation will be at Evans Funeral Home - Milford 741 Center Street Milford, Ohio 45150 Thursday September 14, 2023, from 1:00 PM until time of memorial service at 2:00 PM
