Jack Vernon Cole

What Jack loved the most in life, was his family. He was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma on April 3, 1938 to his loving parents Bill and Hazel Cole and was one of 7 children. Living here his entire life he dedicated his life to his family and his work.
September 14, 1965 Jack married Linda Jean Harris in Jay, Oklahoma. He worked many jobs throughout his lifetime. Two of the longer standing positions he held were as a welder with CE Natco and a 4 Star Technician at the Sand Springs Wal-Mart Garage but if you asked him what his most memorable job was, he would always talk about his younger days he spent traveling with the circus... Those who knew Jack, knew how much he valued good work ethic. One of his favorite jobs was playing the Santa Claus for all of the children at the Sand Springs Wal-Mart. Most holiday seasons you could find him with a warm and welcoming smile, ready to make the holiday special, especially for his great grandchildren. Jack had one of the kindest hearts around and was loved by so many!
Jack passed from this life in Sand Springs, Oklahoma on August 15, 2021 at the age of 83. He is survived by his daughter and son in law, Debbie and Ronnie Barrett of Jennings, daughters Sherry and Janette of Texas, brother Merle Cole, grandaughter Michelle Harris, her husband John, grandsons Josh Taylor, his wife Erica and Chris Johnson, his fiance Kourtany Tedford, and his 11 great grandchildren. Jack will be greatly missed be everyone that crossed his path, all that knew him were blessed by his amazing spirit and loving heart.
