Jack was an All-State, All-Area, All-District, and All-Parish placekicker in 2003. School’s top kicker. Jack played at Mississippi State for three-time SWC Coach of the Year Jackie Sherrill. Jack earned undergraduate and graduate degrees from Mississippi State in 2007.
He met Alex Clay in Oxford, Mississippi. Life, love, and personality filled them. Jack and Alex married in 2014 and had kids in 2018 and 2022. Wallace made them an “All-American Family.” Jack loved growing trees and making useful forest products. His work ethic, demeanor, and knowledge impressed Weyerhaeuser. He managed Weyerhaeuser’s North Louisiana raw materials. Jack’s cheerfulness made others happy. He was a charming, witty, and entertaining comedian. His many friends reflected his complexity. In one day, he could hunt ducks, golf, mow his lawn, and play ball with his son Jackson. Non-inclusive: closet organization and weekly ironing.
Jack started parties. He’d be your best friend instantly. He befriended his friends’ parents. Jack’s participation annoyed his parents. The kid’s best friend. Friend. Hunter, fisher, golfer, wakeboarder, skier. Dedicated husband, father, son, and soon-to-be uncle. Devout Christian Jack is in a better place. Jack was surrounded by family and friends. We’ll see his legacy as his children grow. Jack and Ellete Sherer, his maternal grandparents, and Andrew Alford Crowell died before he was born.
