Obituary- Seitz, John C. 2

Jack use to rent out motor homes from the car lot and would plan family vacations around the return of the unit. The Winnebago was new and we just got back from it Madian Rental. It came back dirty and empty of water, propane, and gas. Jack got the camper refilled with the serviceable items and had Lavette clean it up the best she could. As the four of them left Topeka they noticed a foul smell. The septic had not been emptied. They pulled the camper down a gravel road with a high embankment, and Jack proceeded to show Mike and John how to empty the septic tank in a safe manner. As Mike and John stood back at a safe distance they watched him open the black water valve on the camper and nothing happened. Jack realized immediately what he had done and instead of closing the valve he looked over at Mike and I and told us to “get back”. Jack them attempted to remove the cap from the camper sewer pipe. In his attempt to quickly escape the spewing sludge, he slipped in the wet grass and fell to the ground only to slide down the embankment with the sludge following him close behind. There were at least 3 attempts to escape the in suing waves of unwelcoming sludge before he managed to get clear of the hazard. Never in my life had Mike and I laughed so hard. He replaced the cap and told us that we were never to tell this story. Lavette met him at the door with a towel. She instructed Jack to remove his clothes and go directly to the camper shower. He left his clothes there and he was so mad. Lavette kept a straight face until he was in the shower. She laughed with Mike and I told us that was the funniest thing she had ever experienced. A few months ago, I shared that story with Hillary (John’s girlfriend) Jack smiled big and calmly said “Shit Happens”.

Well Jack we know that and thank you for your time on this earth and all that you did for us. You will be greatly missed and tell all our friends Hi for us.
