Jack was a member of the Trinity Lutheran Church in Spencer. He enjoyed time spent with friends, family, and especially his grandchildren. He took special pride in gardening and growing trees. Jack loved to listen to the Lutheran Hour and he also liked playing Yatzee.

He is lovingly survived by his children, Darold Seefeldt, Joyce Alsteen, Duane (Rendean) Seefeldt, Rhonda (Joe) Weix, Trudy Carey, Mark (Vicky) Seefeldt; as well as 14 grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren. He will truly be missed.

He was preceded in death by his wife, Adeline; parents, Edwin and Gladys; son-in-law, Tim Alsteen; as well as brothers, Maynard Seefeldt, Philmore "Sam" Seefeldt; and a sister, Dorothy Struck.
