Thank you so much for all your love, support and wisdom. We will miss your laugh and smile so much. You were one of a kind and I was lucky to have you in my life. I love you dearly!
Jack and Helen were very special to us and our church family. Sorry to hear of his passing. I know he is rejoicing in heaven with Helen and Terry.
I sure am going to miss Uncle Jack! He will forever be in mine mind sitting in the seat behind me in church with hands raised toward heaven shouting “Well Glory.” He is not “Looking For A City” any longer. He is standing in it, with Terry & Aunt Helen, praising the Lord face to face!
Uncle Jack, we will miss your infectious laugh, your pranks, and most of all your love. We all learned so much from you. I can see you, Mamaw, and Papaw (Pat & Joe Head) fishing, catching up and being so joyful. What a glorious reunion with your wife, son, and family. Thank you for a lifetime of memories that we hold so dear.
Angie (your niece), Chrissy, James and Angelica Wise (great & double great nieces).
So sorry to hear the loss of Jack. He was a wonderful man and will be missed.
Jack was a good man and had the best sense of humor and so witty. We all loved him! My prayers and thoughts are with his family and church family.

We remember Jack for his friendliness, his love of God and his church family. Just a few months ago, we saw him at Ingles and we stopped and talked. He was still driving. I believe that Jack is in a much better place than where he left. I am sure that he was welcomed with open arms. Condolences to his family and many friends.
Our prayers and deepest sympathy,
Phillip and Joyce Dover Evans
We know Jack is rejoicing in heaven with Helen and Terry, and all his family that went on before him.

Jack, You have been a big inspiration in my life, It’s been a privilege to be your great niece and to be able to sit in church with you nearly my whole life. I am going to miss you, but I know your in heaven and I will see you again!!
Tears of joy that you are with your loving wife Helen and son Terry in Heaven…. But sadness that you won’t be sitting behind us in church anymore…. We have great memories of you that will forever be in our hearts…
Thanks for the many good memories you created in our lives.
May the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding be with you all! Jack was one dear man. I wish I could have been there. I can’t travel well at all because of my neck.
