John “Jack” J. Liddell, Sr.

Jack was a loving spouse, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. He loved to bowl, fish, golf, watching football and court TV, nature, and a good glass of scotch. He was a wonderful role model and the king of all “dad” jokes. He will be missed dearly by all who had the pleasure of knowing him and we will cherish all the memories that he gave us. One of the last things he said was, “I am at peace”

“The beauty of a life well lived ~ lives on and on” – Unknown

Jack was preceded in death by his parents Jack & Darlene Liddell and his sister Pam Garcia (Liddell)

He is survived by his wife; Diane, his four children; Joleen, John, Jr. (Shannon), Heather (Tim) and Amber (Andy), along with his six grandchildren; Brandi, Hailey, Brady, Hannah, Jack, and Cody, and his three great-grandchildren; Matthew, Mackenzie, and Mason.

    Jack… you were like my second dad growing up. From pizza dinners, dad jokes, roller skating in the unfinished basement, Nintendo and movie rentals, summer concerts, so many halloweens, and you driving me and Amber (and sometimes Heather) around…. I’m at a loss for words… so much love to you, Diane, and especially Amber and Heather. My heart is broken. Love to all of you ??

    A Life Well Lived is a precious gift, of hope and strength and grace, from someone who has made our world a brighter, better place. It’s filled with moments, sweet and sad with smiles and sometimes tears, with friendships formed and good times shared, and laughter through the years. A life well lived is a legacy, of joy and pride and pleasure, a living, lasting memory our grateful heart’s will treasure. Author Unknown
    Thank you Jack for being such a great brother. To Diane for being the best wife to you. For helping make us a very close big family. You did not deserve to suffer the way you did, but there was not to be a cure. You fought the good fight and were so brave. You were and always will be Loved and remembered for being the Hero that you were. Rest in Peace ? Til we meet again.

    Dear Diane, Liz and I are so sorry to hear about the passing of Jack. I have so many fond memories of bowling with Jack and our many travels to bowling tournaments. Jack was always so fun to be with. Jack was so kind and generous with a big heart. You have such a beautiful family. You were blessed 45 years with Jack and the memories will live forever.
