Jack, was called Big Jack Walker, and “Wild Jack”. Jack loved his family but was not happy about his life he wanted more for his family and life. This could fit the portrait of most young boys and teenager.
Nelson Rockefeller was once asked, “How much money does it take to make a person happy?” He reportedly answered, “Just a little bit more.” Being happy often means feeling contented, and having the sense that your life is meaningful.
Jack ran off with a travelling theater and a sweet lady from Copenhagen Hovedstaden, Denmark, and a famous Opera singer that became his second mother showing him the world of dreams, and, world of color and a world with no boundaries.”. “When dealing with people, remember you are not dealing with creatures of logic, but creatures of emotion.”
There was an actor that gave him book on self –help and told him, “It's actions, not words, which matter but actions.” “Feeling sorry for yourself, and your present condition, is not only a waste of energy but the worst habit you could possibly can have.” By Dale Carnegie:
Jack left home at early age while in the 8th grade he was wearing his sister’s shoes he wanted to have a fine education, make money, make Mon and Dad proud of him. He said, I will not come back till I am rich, and people will never feel sorry for me nor look down on me for being poor.”
It was a dream that he made happen. Later on he passed entrance exam to Dale Carnegie Tech and was allowed to attend and teach Dale Carnegie to others. (Mother told me he had 180 IQ and so did she) Jack did make that long trip home; He bought land and two companies, and married into a good family. He had a ranch home between Russellville, AR and Dardanelle. The Buff Brick home with High Quality Red Clay Roof Tiles which makes a house stands out from the ordinary. Jack while in Europe he often saw red clay tile roofs paired with yellow ochre stucco exterior walls, and that is what he wanted. He had three hundred acres, the home was Built with bricks and steals beam during the depression he paid the workers with food and money.
He once told me he paid men .50 cents a day to work on his home. I would spend the summers with him and Milk cows, collect eggs from the chicken house, and drive his John Deer Tractor pulling up tree stumps and chopping wood.
These were great times! Jack was a great grandpa always trying to teach me something about life or making money which he proved he knew how to do, He taught me how to drive when I was only twelve, he had a Purple 1959 Olds mobile 98 with a stick shift on the Colum, he traded a bunch of cattle for the car at a dealer in Gurdon Arkansas, one time he made me go to the Bank of Dardanelle, Ark. and ask for a loan to buy some heifers at a local auction, of course he had already arranged the meeting for me, but I didn't know it and was scared to death being only twelve.
That same summer and many more we would drive to places like South Carolina and back visiting many cousins, I remember one time when I was only eight , he had gone to Washington D.C. and ask my mother to send me there on a American Airlines four engine Conair, two of the engines went out as we traveled over Tennessee, and we had to make an emergency landing at Nashville, I was there for eight hours alone, we finally got to D.C. and I saw all the monuments and the White House. He later took me out to eat and got me my first Lobster Tail, I thought it was wonderful, and he asked if I wanted another, well I finally had six tails with lemon butter, he always told that story where ever we went.
