Jack served in the US Navy during World War I from July 6, 1917-5 July 1920. He told the officials he was 18 when he was in fact only 17. Jack and sister-in-law Gertrude Armstrong were the "in laws" who were always depended upon to "take charge and organize" during family crisis or wakes in the Armstrong-Shea clan.
Jack and wife Gert lived on West 5th St. next to the old Methodist church just 2 blocks North of the family home of Gert's youth. Jack was an avid hunter and fisherman. He also enjoyed bowling. His family remember him fishing from a small boat on Catfish Creek. He took daughter Mary Lou and friends even a few times.
Converting to Catholicism on his wedding day, Jack was a devout communicant of St. John's in Oswego.
Years after his wife's early death, Jack remarried. He is buried beside his beloved Gert in St. Pauls Cemetery.
