Jackie Ray "Jack" Mann

Jack was a devoted member of St. Jude Catholic Church in Beaumont and an active member of the Knights of Columbus Council #951. He found great joy in serving others, volunteering both with the Knights and at the local food bank and meal service, Some Other Place.

He enjoyed fishing, woodworking, and gardening, but above all, Jack cherished time spent with his family. He had a special love for his grandchildren and took great pride in being part of their daily lives, often picking them up from school and spending as much time with them as possible. He will be remembered as a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend.

Jack is preceded in death by his parents; brothers Billy Wayne and Glenn; and Sister Geneva.

He is survived by his loving wife, Peggy (Skibba) Mann; his children, Mark Mann and wife Wendy, and Emily Proudman and husband James; his cherished grandchildren, Riley Mann, Liam Proudman, and Lily Proudman; his brother, Rickey Mann and wife Patricia; his sister-in-law, Anne Ross; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members, and friends.
