Jackie Lynn Autry

Jack was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, son, brother and friend to many.

Jack was preceded in death by his mother, Violet Glover, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Robert and Ella Quevillion.

He is survived by his wife of 42 years Madelyn; children: Robert R.J., Scott, and Chrysalis Chrissy; daughters-in-law and future son-in-law: Teesha, Lisa, and Mark Heinkel; grandchildren: Toryn, Ryken, Noah, Cody and Savannah; father: Eugene Glover; brothers: Jim Glover, Larry Glover; sister: Jo Ellen Comstock and husband Rick; brother-in-law and sister-in-law: George and Roberta Jones, and many others family members and friends.

Jack loved and participated in sports throughout his life. Growing up he played basketball and baseball at Austwell-Tivoli High School. After attending Blinn Junior College on an athletic scholarship, he transferred to Texas A&I University in Kingsville. It is there where he and Madelyn met and shortly thereafter wed.

After college, he coached at Falfurrias HS, Memorial Middle School in Kingsville, Victoria HS, Bloomington HS and Holmes HS.

He truly demonstrated his passion for coaching when he initiated the girls' basketball team at Holmes HS in 1974. Two seasons later, the San Antonio Express-News named Jack Coach of the Year for leading his team to a 28-4 record and the District 15-4A Crown.

After coaching, Jack pursued a successful career in sales and received many top awards before retiring in 2004.

Jack and Madelyn enjoyed frequent trips to Las Vegas for entertainment and his love for playing Texas Hold 'em.

The family greatly appreciates Dr. Steven Kalter and his staff for their compassionate support and care.

Visitation will be held at Porter Loring North on Friday, December 3rd from 6:00 P.M. to 8:00 P.M.
