Jack Benz
Jack is a lifelong Tennessean currently living in Goodlettsville, Tennessee along with his wife, the former Noroma Carr of Madison, and his Shih Tzu buddy, Bentley. He is the proud father of two daughters, Penney Jones and Kelley Benz, both of Sumner County, Tennessee. He grew up in the Inglewood section of Nashville and graduated from the legendary Isaac Litton High School, known nationally as a school of distinction in academics, athletics, and for it's marching band. Jack attended Tennessee Tech and in 1955 graduated from Belmont University with a degree in Business Administration. He is an avid supporter of basketball programs at Belmont where he played his last two years. Presently in retirement, he continues to serve the University as a Trustee Emeriti and is seen regularly at court-side for home or away basketball games. After serving his commitment in the U. S. Army, Jack entered and completed a 50 year career in the insurance industry. Jack currently is a competitive golfer and for over 40 years was active in sailboat racing. He has won two national championships and other competitive events throughout the eastern waters, the great lakes, the Caribbean, and the Atlantic Ocean. Jack Benz has a winning attitude, infectious personality, and relentless work ethic which have been demonstrated the 65 years I have known him. This will be obvious to the readers of this spellbinding account of his famous great, great grandfather. Considering his reputation for having exceptional organizational habits and skills, it is not surprising that he has been collecting resources for this undertaking for over 50 years. I am pleased to introduce Jack Benz as a great American with an all-American story. -author Jack Van Hooser
