Jack was born in Lincoln, Nebraska in 1931. He moved to California at age twelve.

He graduated from Palo Alto Senior High School ("Paly" High) in 1949 and continued on to the University of California at Berkeley. After graduating from Berkeley, he spent a year in the Army. After returning from overseas, Jack returned to Cal to finish his graduate work and attain his Master's Degree.

Jack's first job was with the Arthur Andersen Accounting firm in San Francisco. A few years later Jack and two friends started their own accounting firm, Brooks, Stednitz, and Rhodes in San Jose, California.

Jack was active in the community, most notably as a lifelong Rotarian. He was President of the Rotary Club of Almaden Valley. Jack was also President of the Santa Clara County Estate Planning Council.

Jack leaves one brother, Leo; his wife Betty and his three children, Ann, Paul, and Alan, along with three grandchildren; Brandon, Emily, and Zachary.

A family service has been held. As Zachary would say, "Rest in Peace Papa".
