Jack W. Cheetham, 71, of Sandusky, passed away on Sunday morning, December 5, 2021 at Stein Hospice Care Center, after experiencing complications from a recent appendectomy, exacerbated by dementia
He was born on July 15, 1950 in Sandusky to Margaret (Angello) and the late Clyde Cheetham.
He was a 1968 graduate of Sandusky High School and received an Associate's Degree from Terra Tech. He retired in 2006 after 30 years as a Tool & Die Maker for the former New Departure/Delphi in Sandusky.
He was a member of U.A.W. Local #913, and a lifelong member of the former St. Paul Lutheran Church of Sandusky. Jack was an avid model car collector. He enjoyed making others smile with his jokes, impersonations, and being the clown. He'll be deeply missed by those who knew and loved him.
