JACK-the "WIZARD of automotive and classic
car upholstery"
JACK AND HIS WIFE, JOYCE, ARE ST. LOUIS NATIVES. HIS ENTRANCE INTO THE WORLD OF UPHOLSTERY CAME WHEN HE WAS WORKING THE PARTS DEPARTMENT OF AN OLDSMOBILE DEALERSHIP IN ST. LOUIS. IN 1975 HE WAS APPROACHED BY AN AUTOMOTIVE UPHOLSTERER THAT FREQUENTED THE SHOP...THUS, THE WIZARD OF AUTOMOTIVE UPHOLSTERY WAS BORN. ACTUALLY, THE BIRTH WASN'T THAT EASY. THEY BEGAN WITH VINYL REPAIRS AND JUMPED IN WITH A SEWING MACHINE TO EXPAND TO MORE DETAILED JOBS. JACK ATTENDED THE SCHOOL OF HARD KNOCKS AND RECEIVED HIS MASTERS DEGREE IN HARD WORK. IN 1978 HE BRANCHED OUT ON HIS OWN, RUNNING A MOBILE UPHOLSTERY SERVICE TO CAR DEALERSHIPS. IN 1986, HE AND JOYCE TOOK THE GAMBLE IN ORDER TO BE NEAR THEIR CHILDREN LIVING IN LAS VEGAS.
HE BEGAN WORKING IN THE CASINO BUSINESS. HIS JOB ENTAILED ALL THE UPHOLSTERY WORK FOR THE GOLD COAST HOTEL AND CASINO. WITH GRANDCHILDREN IN THE PICTURE, THE FAMILY LOOKED BEYOND THE LIFE OF BRIGHT LIGHTS FOR A PLACE TO RAISE THAT NEXT GENERATION. THEY WISHED NOT TO RETURN TO CITY LIFE BUT HAD THEIR SIGHT ON A MORE RURAL AREA...THUS, LIFE IN NIXA BEGAN IN 2006. AS WITH ALL ENTREPRENEURS, THE AMERICAN DREAM OF HAVING HIS OWN BUSINESS RESURFACED. IN 2007 HE OPENED THE ONE MAN SHOP ON DEFFER DRIVE. HIS BUSINESS HAD EXPANDED IN THOSE 4 YEARS TO REQUIRE ADDITIONAL EMPLOYEES IN 2011. THE BUSINESS GREW FROM PRIMARILY AUTOMOTIVE UPHOLSTERY...JACK'S SPECIALTY...
