John Daggett Obituary
Dr. John R. Daggett, "Jack", our beloved Husband, Father, and Grandfather was called home to be with his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ on May 31, 2010 at the age of 72. Jack was a 1955 Jefferson High School graduate, earned his B.S. degree from Texas A&M in 1960, and received his D.D.S. from Baylor University College of Dentistry in 1964. He served his country on active duty in the U.S. Army from 1964 - 1968. Jack earned his Mastership in the Academy of General Dentistry. His level of excellence in serving his patients was unparalleled. He truly loved people and was concerned for their health and well-being, both physically and spiritually. Jack was devoted to his family as a wonderful, selfless provider. He was preceded in death by his father, Tommy Daggett and mother "Lady" Yantis Daggett Moore. Jack is survived by his cherished wife Nancy of 53 years; his brother Dow Daggett; and his children, Lauren, John, Matthew and his wife Kirsten, and Benjamin. Jack was the loving Grandpa to Hope Daggett, Grace, Ashlyn and Wesley Stephens, Carlton, Matthew, and Christian Daggett. Visitation will be on Thursday, June 3, 2010 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Porter Loring.

Jack was a special cousin to me. He worked at my father's garage and then for my Uncle Pat. On the day I buried my father at age 11, Jack came by and took me swimming and to share with me his love of my dad, Spencer. Through the years he help keep my father's memory alive for me. Jack say hello to my dad in heaven.

I knew Jack long before he ever became a dentist. We began elementary school, Agnes Cotton, together and we graduated from Jefferson High School together in 1955. Jack was our dentist for many years and we knew him as a man who loved God and served God. Family, our prayer is that God will send His Holy Spirit to comfort your hearts and that His presence will give you peace and joy because of the hope we have in our Lord Jesus Christ.
Jack will be missed.

For the family of Dr. Daggett--Our staff enjoyed having Dr. Daggett visit us, and working with our Company in providing dental service to the Soldiers. It always brought smiles to our faces when he walked in through our doors. He was a caring dentist and was truly part of "our family". He will be greatly missed.

To the Daggett Family,
Our sympathy to you all during this time of loss. When I found out of his passing, my spirit sensed joy in knowing where he is now......such peace that surpasses all understanding. We will always remember his kindness, compassion and love of sharing Jesus to all he met. He will be missed by us all but heaven has gained an angel!

My father, Wayne Yantis (son of Robert & Lola Yantis), always spoke highly and fondly of his cousin Jack. Jack was his beloved dentist for many years. May Jack rest in peace in the house of the Lord. He has many loving family members waiting to greet him at the gates of Heaven. I pray for God to be with your family in this time of loss and grief.
