January 10, 2017 at the age of 92. He is survived by his wife of 65 years, Marcia Lou (Stone); children, Jo (Mary Jane Varley), Amy, and Skip (Laura Mills) Sherman; grandchildren, Drew and Brett Tschetter, Tyler, Brad and Leanne Sherman, and Julia Lewis. Jack was a WWII Army veteran, a former POW captured in the Battle of the Bulge, and a Wharton Business School graduate. He was owner of Sherman Battery & Auto Parts until 1997, when he retired. In retirement, he delivered "Meals on Wheels" and regularly volunteered at the Jewish Home. His 65 year marriage to "Lulu" was his proudest achievement. He was a devoted husband, father and grandfather, and enjoyed classical music and the Boston Red Sox. He was a long standing member of Temple B'rith Kodesh, where he regularly attended services, sang in the choir, taught students about Jewish traditions and was a member of the Saturday morning "back-benchers". He will be remembered for his quick wit, positive outlook, and compassion. He was one-of-a-kind. Funeral services will be on SUNDAY, January 15, 2017 at 1:30 PM at Temple B'rith Kodesh (2131 Elmwood Avenue), with internment following at Mount Hope Cemetery. Calling Hours will be held SUNDAY from 7-9 PM and MONDAY from 2-4 PM & 7-9 PM at Valley Manor (1570 East Avenue).
