I am so sorry that Jack has passed. I always thought of him as my second dad when Jennifer and I were at ISU together. He was such a kind, caring and wonderful man. Always willing to help us poor college kids out when we needed something. Heaven has indeed gained a angel.

All my love and prayers!

Oliver Family, I remember Jack when he visited his Sister Judy while we were in College at St. Francis, Fort Wayne. He was always a happy boy back then. At that time the dealorship was owned by Big John. I loved driving through Plymouth back in the day from St. Francis to my home in Michigan City. I am so happy to know that a 3rd generation is in charge at Oliver Ford. My best to all the family, condolences and prayers. Shirley(Beaver) Kurtzhals.

To the Oliver family,
I am so sorry for your loss, I got to know Jack from his daily lunch runs at Martin's and then while doing business with him with my first car. He always made my day even if I was not having a very good one. He had a way of just lighting up a place.
I know the sorrow and shock you are going through. I loss my Aunt to Covid in march the same way. She started not feeling right then pretty much 36 hrs later she was rushed to Indy and died the next morning.
I am glad to know you also know and love God. I don't know how we could handle it without him.
Much love and prayers!

Michael and I would like to express our deepest sympathy to the family and extended family (the employees of Oliver Ford) we have been customers of Oliver Ford...for years and had the pleasure meeting many people there from John to his son,daughter,to their wonderful staff...he was so proud of his family and they were of him,whenever he walked in the Dealership he always greeted you with that smile,and it carried on to his son John...he also works with his heart...
We know this is hardbut know how much he loved each and everyone of you and he will live within you..just look up he will be that shing star in the sky,the wind on your face,the rain on your cheek,but most of all the peace in your heart..
Bless you,

Janna, our family is honored to join the community in offering our sincere condolences at the passing of Jack.
Jack was a brilliant entrepreneur. He built his ‘Happy Jack’ brand into the most recognizable and respected locally owned retail and service business in this area. His philanthropy touched virtually everyone in our community. His leadership and counsel was sought by countless policy makers and citizens alike. Simply put he was an icon whose legacy will enrich and inspire generations to come.
Jennifer, John and Jessica, your father and mother cultivated your own devotion to customer and community service. Your unprecedented support of the SJRMC Cancer Institute is a prime example of your shared values.

RIP Jack. You made a difference my friend.
John and Sarah Oliver and family
Plymouth.

To the Oliver Family, I offer up this familiar prayer for Jack:

Eternal rest, grant unto him O Lord
and let perpetual light shine upon him.
May he rest in peace. Amen
May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed,
through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
Amen

It was my honor to have know Jack. May he now enter the arms of our Lord and Savior.
