Jack Martin Lemmer

Jack Martin Lemmer, 29, of Charlotte, died unexpectedly at his home on December 13, 2022. Jack was born in Evanston, Illinois, on December 30, 1992, the son of Keith and Lucia Trilli Lemmer. They lived in Chicago and when he was 9, his family moved to Chesterton, Indiana. He graduated from high school in 2011 and went on to attend Purdue University where he obtained his undergraduate degree in Nuclear Engineering. Jack then enrolled in the University of Maryland where he earned his master’s degree in Fire Protection and Engineering. Duke Energy, impressed with Jack’s abilities, offered him a position as a nuclear engineer and in 2015, Jack moved to Charlotte. There, he met the joy of his life, Ms. Kristie Solimon, who he planned to marry. Though diagnosed with Marfan Syndrome at the age of 4, Jack never used it as an excuse to hold himself to high standards and achievement in life. Jack was very generous and supported many causes in his life. He served others in many capacities, including as President of the Duke Charlotte Chapter of North American Young Generation in Nuclear (NAYGN) NAYGN, Carolina Region, Duke - Charlotte Chapter. As a boy, Jack joined the Boy Scouts and worked through the ranks, attaining his Eagle Scout status. As a scout, he pledged to be trustworthy, helpful, loyal, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent. Those that knew him, however, knew that this wasn’t hard for Jack because he naturally embodied those qualities before he was even in scouting. Most of all, Jack loved to spend time with friends, especially time spent gaming. Board games or computer games, Jack enjoyed all of them and made many friends in life. One thing you could say about the friends he made, when you were his friend, you were his friend for life. Jack is survived by his parents, Keith and Lucia Lemmer of Charlotte and his girlfriend Kristie Solimon; and numerous other family and friends. Or as Jack would say, he was “Blessed to have the best friends and parents to support him.” Jack was preceded in death by his grandparents and “The Greatest Cat in the World, Haymitch.” Jack’s family has given the family of Lowe-Neddo Funeral Home the privilege of caring for him and for them.
