Both Jack and his late wife, Jean, left an imprint on many in the Tracy community. I started seeing Jack for haircuts sometime around junior high. I believe I was with my grandfather, Clint Shaw, on my first visit. Those hair appointments continued through college and my early adult life. The family genes eventually kicked in and I no longer needed a barber. Nonetheless, I would pop in to say hello to Jack in his iconic barber shop or at his farm place where his chickens seemed to think I was the food delivery man. Jack was as friendly as they come. His presence will certainly be missed.

Jack will be truly missed in the Tracy community. He was an example of a good neighbor, a good citizen and always knew you when he saw you. How many hundreds of haircuts did he give? How many times did people driving by on old Highway 14 have to slow down to see his "Oreo" cows? How many came into his shop "to have a little trim off the sides" and left looking better and feeling a bit better too? We are sad he's gone but thankful to have known him.
