He was born June 29, 1941 in Harper, Kansas, to Vernon LeRoy and Genevieve (Troyer) Merryman who both preceded him in death.

Jack attended Highland Park High School. He began working for Lower Plumbing, Heating and Air in 1972. He worked at Lowers for 44 years before retiring to his first love of fishing. He supplied many friends, neighbors and family with fresh crappie and walleye.
