At the age of seventeen before graduating high school he served as a full-time minister of Jehovah’s Witnesses and did so for many years. This was one of the most important things in life to him.

On September 24, 1972, he married Sharon A. Herbelin of Waco, Texas and they built their life together. He was known for his wonderful smile (he was called Smiling Jack). He loved being with his family and truly enjoyed his grandchildren and loved music. He was a sincere and giving person and would literally give the shirt off his back to help anyone. He had the biggest heart and was an emotional teddy bear. He was always there for his family and friends no matter what the circumstances. Most important to him, he served Jehovah God faithfully throughout and to the end of his life.

He is survived by Sharon, his wife of 40 years and their two children Jennifer and her husband Jason, Pamela and her husband Micah, and two grandchildren Javon and Jada.

A celebration of his life will be held at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah Witness’s, 6 Station Rd., Newcastle at 4:30pm Sunday, Feb 10th.
