Jack was a hard working father & loving grandfather, we always called him the “Real panama Jack” he always found a way to show he cared while making sure you stuck to your guns & received an education as that was important to him. He enjoyed spending time listening to music like Pink Floyd & making trips to the beach with his daughter & grandchildren throughout the years. He also adored his newest great grand daughter as he taught her to eat flowers & picked berries any chance they got to see each other. His daughter was his best friend & they could talk about anything for hours. He was surely the one to call when you needed advice, direction or conversation. He will truly be missed & will remain always in our hearts until we meet again one day in heaven. Services will be arranged by Ada Dial clark & Bethany Nelson. His cremation will be held in Panama City FL & his services in Waycross
