He was born in Little Chute on January 20, 1927 to the late John and Nellie (Hammen) Schommer. Jack served in the Navy as a Seaman First Class and was stationed in Hawaii. He married Mary "Mae" Geurts at St. Nicholas Parish on August 18, 1951. She preceded him in death on October 24, 2012. Together, they loved to travel, whether it was winter trips to California and Florida or trips abroad. Jack's faith played a large role in his life, praying the rosary with Mae daily. Jack retired from United Grocers in 1986. He was a member of St. Nicholas Parish. Jack loved to socialize with family and friends. He was a jokester and could be counted on for a one-liner for each occasion. Jack enjoyed bowling and playing cards, especially Sheephead. He was a member of the Freedom VFW Post 7692, the Knights of Columbus and the Freedom Volunteer Fire Department. Jack also enjoyed gardening, puttering around in the yard, feeding his birds and watching the Packers. Jack is survived by his children: Susan (Terry) Muenster, Seymour; Bill "Baldy" (special friend Sandi Ryan), Florence; Bob (Donna), Freedom; Rick (Cindy), Freedom; and Stacey, Stevens Point; grandchildren: Jason (Leah), Kristin and Cody (special friend Marsha) Muenster, Nicole, Craig, Eric, Brett, Adam and Alyssa Schommer; great grandchildren: Zachary, Jacob and Elliana Muenster; brothers and sisters-in-law: Ivo (Mary) Geurts, Eileen Weins, Ursie (Jerry) Zwiers and Joe (Shirley) and Rita Geurts.
