PITTSBURG —
Jack M. N. Shelton, age 47, of Pittsburg, Kansas, passed away at KU Medical Center on Thursday, May 17, due to complications from a recent heart condition. Jack attended school in Adrian, Missouri, and recently celebrated a reunion with his much-beloved Class of 1982. Following high school, Jack attended KU and Washburn Law School. He worked as an attorney and as a business owner, most recently of Wheat State Pizza in Pittsburg, Kansas. His sense of humor and warm personality made him a friend to everyone he met, and he enjoyed life, people, and good music. He enjoyed playing guitar and called himself “Guitar Man.” He is survived by his daughter, Kassandra Shelton, of Kansas City, Missouri; his son, Joshua Shelton, of West Palm Beach, Florida; his stepdaughter, Alix Rieman, of Lawrence, Kansas; two brothers; four sisters; and numerous nieces and nephews. He also leaves behind his mother, Kathleen Raysik, of Adrian, Missouri; and his father, Jack Shelton, of Wichita, Kansas. Jack was an organ donor, and others will be helped by his passing. The family held a private memorial on Sunday, May 20, to honor Jack’s memory.
