Jack was born October 25, 1975 in Mansfield, Ohio. He was the son of Chester Lawhorn and Hannah (Shepherd) Perry. Jack was employed at Leppart Machine for 20 years. He proudly served our country in the United States Marine Corp.
Jack died as he lived, enjoying life. He was the life of the party and never knew a stranger. He was a man his family and friends could always depend on. He loved fishing, hunting and more than anything his family. Jack was a nature lover and truly enjoyed anything outdoors. Walking his property with our family dog – Onyx was his solitude.
