Jack lived a full and very active life for 90 years. Jack married the love of his life Billie, and they recently celebrated 69 years of marriage. After serving in the Army during the Korean War, Jack & Billie settled in Houston, Texas and raised their three sons, Jay, Barry and Rodney. Jack worked as an office manager for many years and eventually became a plant manager in a support company for the railroad industry. He also served as part-time music minister at different churches and he and his wife had a nursing home and senior living facility ministry for many years.

No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.
