Obituary published on Legacy.com by A.W. Rich Funeral Home - Fairfax on Nov. 27, 2024.
Jack McNall, 81, of Fairfield, passed away peacefully at St. Albans Health and Rehab on Friday November 22, 2024. Jack was born on December 22, 1942, son of the late Berkley and Susan Jane (Shaw) McNall.
Jack was a dairy farmer for 20 years in Fairfield, Vermont. After selling the farm in 1996, he worked with John Deere as a salesman. Upon retirement, he spent winters in Sebring, Florida, working at the Bakersfield Country Club landscaping in the summer. Jack loved his family, being outdoors, playing golf and sugaring. He spent a lot of time in his woodworking shop, creating everything from jewelry boxes to rocking chairs. He was a great storyteller, a hard worker and loved a good nap.
Jack is survived by his loving wife, Priscilla McNall, of 60 years, his two sons Ronald McNall and wife Linda, Berkley McNall, daughter Kimberly Patulak and husband Michael, two sisters, Susan Gail Archey and Deborah McNall, several grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces, nephews and cousins. Jack was also predeceased by his sister Joan Longe, brothers-in-law James Longe and William Archey and his daughter-in-law Michelle McNall.
The family would like to thank the nursing staff and doctors that cared for Jack at Northwestern Medical Center and St. Albans Health and Rehab. Your support and compassion was of great comfort to not only Jack, but his family, as well.
