Jack V. Sheedy

Jack Sheedy, of Azle, Texas, passed away on August 31, 2018 in Fort Worth, Texas. He will always be remembered as a loving father, grandfather, and friend to all that knew and loved him. He was born on June 2, 1927 in Cline, Texas to Ralph and Hazel Sheedy. Jack served his country in World War II as part of the 1253rd Engineer Combat Battalion. He then went on to work in construction with Zachry Construction, where he worked for most of his adult life. Jack’s retirement from construction allowed him to devote much of his time to spending time with family, especially his son, Steve and grandson, Jarrett. Jack and his wife of 61 years, Leota, loved their families and devoted as much time as possible to them. They loved travelling to visit family and attend family reunions. Jack and Leota also forged very special bonds with and loved their church family at Walnut Creek Baptist Church in Azle, Texas.
