His hobbies included fishing, gardening and hunting and he attended Faith Family Church.

Those who knew Jack were aware of his deep love and devotion to his wife of 65 years, his fond affection for his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, as well as his unwavering faith in God.  

Although he will be greatly missed, his family has been left with a legacy of love that far surpasses any grief felt by his absence.
