Jackie Ray Fowler
November 7, 1932 — November 4, 2020
Jackie Ray Fowler 87 of Burleson Texas, went home to be with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on November 4, 2020 at 4:26 AM at Grandview Nursing Home in Grandview, Texas.
Jackie was born to Alvin and Clara Fowler on November 7, 1932 in Roosevelt, Oklahoma.
Jack was a faithful child of God and loved serving as an usher, deacon, elder and in any capacity needed to help others. His early years included picking cotton after school and helping care for his 6 younger brothers and sisters. At 18 he became a lineman in the Air Force after enlisting in 1950 and served during the Korean War. No matter what difficulties or struggles came Jack's way, he never let it stop him, “You have to keep moving” he would say and off he would go to work in the yard or barn.
Jack loved his family and especially enjoyed spending quality grandpa time with his grandchildren and great grandchildren. After his retirement he delivered Meals on Wheels in Johnson County and regularly visited nursing home residents to brighten up their day. Jack loved reading his Bible and then going to his favorite spot, the front porch to enjoy his morning coffee. He also loved reading old western novels and spent many an afternoon reading in his rocking chair. Though he experienced tremendous loss in his life, Jack always gave people a since of hope and generously shared that hope with others. Jack always loved large and surely will be missed but his legacy of what it means to be a “good man” will live on forever.
