Jaggers, of Edmonson County, works in the park’s maintenance department and says it’s a job he loves. “You meet a lot of different people,” he said. Some of his duties include emptying trash cans, changing light bulbs, changing air-conditioning filters and cleaning the bathrooms at the park’s Visitors’ Center. When he’s not at work, Jaggers said he likes to fish. “I try to go once a week during the summertime,” he said. His favorite fishing spot is Lake Nolin. When he goes fishing, he usually fishes for catfish, blue gill and crappie. Jaggers once caught a 20-pound catfish. Rather than having the big fish mounted so he could hang it on a wall in his home, he put it in the freezer. Jaggers also enjoys hunting. “I hunt rabbit and quail,” he said. He’s also a “shade tree mechanic,” working on cars as a hobby. Jaggers attends Cave Hollow United Baptist Church in Edmonson County. He has one stepdaughter, Tara Michelle Lindsey, who is 23. Jaggers’ plan for the future, he said, is just “surviving.”
