Featured obituary:

John “Jack” H. Bleck, 94, a 52-year resident of Lake Bluff, died June 21, 2019 surrounded by his loving family.

Jack was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on April 20, 1925. He was one of five children of Henry B. Bleck and Edna C. Kilbert, long-time residents of Milwaukee. He grew up in Waukegan, where he attended St. Anastasia School and Waukegan Township High School.

In 1943, Jack enlisted in the U.S. Navy and attended the V-12 aviation training program at Newberry College. There he received his wings, qualified for carrier landings and then was assigned to the VT-17 torpedo squadron.

Upon his honorable discharge in 1946, he joined the reserves, attended the University of Illinois where he received his Bachelors of Science degree in Civil Engineering. After graduating, he acquired his license as a Professional Engineer and started the family business with his father.
