The youngest of ten children\, Aniceto grew up on Lincoln Avenue alongside his many siblings: Carmen\, Trinidad\, Soledad\, Esperanza\, Socorro\, Josephine\, Louis\, Joseph\, and Raquel. \nA Childhood LegendAs a young boy\, Aniceto spent his days exploring the “paradise” of his backyard\, which was filled with lakes\, forests\, and wildlife. He was often accompanied by his dog\, Flame—a legend rumored to be half-fox. It was during these adventurous years that his siblings noticed his incredible speed. Running as fast as a “JACK rabbit\,” he earned the nickname that stayed with him for a lifetime: Jack. \nAthleticism and ServiceJack graduated from Valley High School in 1957. A standout athlete\, he competed in track\, basketball\, and football for all four years\, eventually serving as the captain of the football team during his senior year. His popularity and school spirit earned him the title of Prom King and membership in the V Club. Following high school\, Jack served his country in the United States Army from 1962 to 1964\, stationed in Germany with the Signal Corps. \nCareer and CommunityUpon returning home\, Jack built a career rooted in hard work and local tradition. He worked at the Die & Tool Company on 7th Street before following in the footsteps of his father and brothers by joining the Rock Island Railroad. He eventually transferred to the Union Pacific in Missouri\, where he remained until his retirement. His passion for sports continued well into adulthood. For over a decade\, Jack played shortstop\, left field\, and second base for the West Des Moines Mexican Eagles baseball team. His contributions to the local sports scene were honored when he was inducted into the Mexican Hall of Fame in West Des Moines. \nFamily and LegacyJack married Kathy Bills in 1965\, and they had one daughter\, Melana. Later in life\, he married Barbara “Barb” Peters\, becoming a stepfather to her four children. Jack and Barb shared over 40 years of marriage until her passing in 2022. Today\, Jack still resides in West Des Moines. He is a proud grandfather to Megan and Rachel\, and a great-grandfather to Macey\, Easton\, and Dallas. An avid outdoorsman\, he never misses the annual family fishing trip. Whether he is cheering for the Hawkeyes or enjoying a meal of fried chicken and Mexican food\, Jack’s greatest joy remains his heritage. He continues to share stories of the “old days\,” emphasizing that family is the most important thing in life—a value that has sustained the Murillo family for seven generations. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				2026 Schedule\n5/7 | CINCO DE MAYO w/ GUITARRAS ATM5/14 | DIRTY CHAMPAGNE5/21 | BAD FRIENDS5/28 | SURF ZOMBIES6/4 | THE PEOPLE’S BAND6/11 | DECOY TRIO6/18 | KINDA PETTY BAND6/25 | BROTHER TRUCKER7/2 | RECOIL 7/9 | SONS OF GLADYS KRAVITZ7/16 | DICK DANGER BAND7/23 | THE BARRELHOUSE ROCKETS7/30 | THE GET DOWN8/6 | GALLIVANT 8/13 | FACULTY LOUNGE8/20 | ENGLISH 8/27 | RANDY BURK & THE PRISONERS9/3 | BITTERSWEET NATION9/10 | CEDAR FALLS ROCK & ROLL REVUE9/17 | GUT FEELING9/24 | JASON WELLS BAND \n  \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Getting Here\nHere is the map link to our office in the heart of the Farmers Market.
