COUNCIL #4962 - RAYTOWN- POPE PIUS XII REMEMBERS |
Jack C. Uhlig, 89, born Sept. 2, 1926 in KCMO. Jack joined his beautiful bride, Mary Caroline, in peaceful eternity on Feb. 29th, 2016. Jack was the son of Albert George Uhlig and Pearl Weber Uhlig. Jack was loved and appreciated by all those around him and will be greatly missed. Jack was born and raised in Kansas City and graduated from Paseo High School. After high school Jack joined the Navy and proudly served his Country in WWII as a Radarman Third Class USNR-R. Jack had several employers over the years but the one that was near and dear to his heart was the ten years he spent at St. Mary's Hospital in building maintenance. Jack was a deeply religious man and was a member of St Regis Catholic Church. He was also a lifetime member and past Grand Knight of Knights of Columbus, Council 4962. One of his favorite activities at the Knights of Columbus was calling Bingo, where he would inevitably call 'that little booger #1'. Jack was heavily involved in getting the Knights new hall, built to house the Council, and bingo. Jack married Mary in 1947 and built a beautiful home for his family in Raytown on Spring Valley Road. Jack and Mary enjoyed family time at their Lake of the Ozarks Home that Jack built. The many family memories that were made at the Lake are forever in our hearts! In lieu of flowers, donations may be made on Jack's behalf to the Knights of Columbus Council 4962, 5101 Blue Ridge Cutoff, KCMO, 64133, or the KC Hospice, 12000 Wornall Rd, KCMO, 64145.
